Today I just recieved two male ferrets from a woman who was in the process of moving and was not allowed to keep them. One is sable and the other is white. Both of the males are about three years old and appear to be healthy except for one thing. The white ferret has a bump on his tail. I am not sure if it is an ingrown hair, pimple, or something else. Is there anyone else out there that has had this problem? My three year old cinnamon sable mix has never had any health concerns so this is completely new to me.

Is the bump at the tip of the tail? if it is it could be a "chordoma" it is a growth that is usually found at the tip of the ferret's tail. The best treatment for this is surgical removal, which requires amputation of that part of the tail. Ferrets recover quickly, a vet would know for sure. keep us posted.
