Tips on taming a 10 week old ferret?

As you are a stranger to her you should give her time to get used to you. Take it slow and wait for her to approach you. Let her get used to her surroundings first too, she's bound to be a little jumpy. If she continues to bite you then you should use the scruffing method to teach her that she is hurting you. To scruff her you just simply lift her up by the loose skin on the back of her neck. Whilst doing this you can either hiss at her (ferrets know this as a sign to back off/they're doing something wrong) or you can firmly tell her "NO". She will eventually learn what your limits are but she doesn't seem to be a really bad biter so she should learn quite quickly, especially once she settles in. You can also treat her with ferret treats or ferretone when she listens to you or she plays nicely with you. Good luck and if you have any problems or questions then feel free to contact me :)

I had two ferrets and endured weeks of nipping before it stopped. Just make it clear that's not acceptable behaviour and be sure to handle her as much as possible. Your fear makes it worse.
