My girlfriend and I just "impulse" bought 2 ferrets from Pet World (Marshall Ferrets to be exact). By impulse I mean we weren't in the market for a ferret, let alone two of them, but after seeing it and playing with them we decided to go for it 2 weeks after our first interaction.

I've got 2 Ferret Nation double cages side by side and all decked out...these ferrets are SPOILED already LOL

I'm wondering if anyone knows of a private breeder as the research I've done, and continue to do, shows "mill" ferrets typically have health concerns later in their short lives and private breeders typically produce a higher quality animal.

OBVIOUSLY you can't just have a couple of these little fur babies so we're interested in obtaining from private stock.
