Why is my ferret bald?

I got a new ferret from my friend. And my friend said the ferret is bald because her sister yells and screams and lot when she is mad and then hits the cage(wow) and scares them.She said its from stress. But she gave me two ferrets one is bald but the other has fur. Will the bald one be fine? Since hes with me will his fur grow back?

Answer #1

It’s probably the bedding you have in his cage. If you’re using Cedar, then that’s why. It made our mice go bald and we had to switch to Pine bedding.

Answer #2

maybe he’s stressed. :O

Answer #3

It could be adrenal disease. Take your ferret to the vet for a check up just to be sure.
