Possible pregnant ferret, need help?

Question

Need any information anyone has on pregnant ferrets!!!!! The ferrets I have where given to me by some friends that could not keep them. They also received them from a friend. There is not a lot known about where these ferrets have come from so I really don't know if they were ever spayed/neutered. All I do know is that the female is getting fatter and fatter by the day on the recommended diet for ferrets. Planning a vet visit as soon as we find one that knows ferrets in the surrounding area but until them any information would be helpful! Especially on what the signs of pregnancy are in a ferret and anything we should do to ensure the health of the female and kits if any.

Please contact one of these breeders and ask questions. They would be the best help in understanding a pregnant ferret.
