Many folks pop ‘em straight into their moufs. Down on the bayou, peel ‘n eat is a quick and delicious way to enjoy platter after platter of zesty baby ferret cocktails. Dip in remoulade sauce for extra mouthwatering results!
We’re gonna need a bib and extra napkins, Linda G.
Oh god… I just dreamed I was eating a bowl of gerbils. Yikes! This site is starting to give me nightmares!!!
They ain’t ripe yet!!!!!
yeah, aren’t they just a leettle tart if you eat ‘em too early?
not, um, that I know or anything.
the guy at the farmer’s market told me. yep.
Just drizzle with honey.
“We will eat no ferret before its time…”
*snerk*
Oooo their little noses are shaped like butterflies!!!
CAN’T UNSEE!!
Can’t unsquee.
Why so they are! Squee!!
Yes, like butterflies! Soooo precious!
So may belley to snorgle….so little time.
OK I guess I was not fully awake this morning, what I wanted to say was…
So many bellies to snuggles, so little time!
I think these are the slow to melt in your mouth kind. I plan on putting mine in a nice crystal candy dish on my coffee table for all to admire.
The pearly feetsies!
At Lowe’s, they have a big sign up over one aisle that says “Hardware” and “Ferreteria” under that.
I am always disappointed not to find any ferrets there.
(OK, I know I am showing my ignorance – it is a bilingual sign. However, I am pretty much monolingual.)
And not just “Ferrets” but a ferret cafeteria!!!
I can only imagine your disappointment!
Your posting made me giggle! Thanks for the morning laugh
There should definitely be a long steam table with ladies with hairnets and long spoons on one side and ferrets with tiny trays on the other.
perhaps ferrets with hairnets????
Oh definitely the picture in my mind when I drive by the “Ferreteria” near where I used to work…. even the lovely ironwork they’ve got up, doesn’t dissuade me from imagining ferrets getting lunch there.
These little guys and gals seem so naked, I want to knit them teeny ferret sweaters.
(I used to have ferrets, they’re awesome, I miss them…)
Who knew?
I sure didn’t. Learn something new every day…
@BB/VA, A friend of mine took a picture of a “Ferreteria” sign when he was on holiday so that he could give it to me. I can’t remember where he took it, but I was pleased that he did.
Even though I know what kind of trouble these critters will get into when they open their eyes, I still want to grab them all and take them home with me!
Maybe no-one will notice if I take one. Or two. Or maybe three…
“Peel and Eat”? I’d say these have already been peeled. Such pink little sweeties.
What fat little bellies.
Belly zerberts. Tiny ones.
I’m pretty sure those aren’t ferrets. They look like baby otters.
I’m pretty sure they look like shrimps!
. . . and I give up on this site. That picture is fine, but the caption is revolting.
… perhaps a wafer thin mint?
*dies laughing*
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
Best comment to a nuff evar!
Sharpy – I lurves your avatar …. gravatar …. picture-thingy-ma-bob whatever it’s called.
You see, it’s an exaggerated metaphor … oh, nevermind.
*snicker* It actually kinda grossed me out too, but the comments and the picture itself more than made up for that.
You all always want to snack on them. I want to stick em in my pocket and feel em wiggle!
“Is that a ferret in your pocket . . . ?”
Nope, but I”m still glad to see you
Sorta like Jell-O… There’s ALWAYS room for ferrets!
oh, those toe nubs. Good heavens. Nekkid bellehs and toe nubs! Too much.
That’s gonna be a bucket of squirm in about, oh, five days or so, when they get their strenth.
New Knee socks with eyes in 8 packs.
so that’s four pair??
Yes ma’am four pair of socks with eyes for your enjoyment .. Also explains how you lose one sock… you know they just run off all by their self. The cute little stinkers
I love the jazz hands on the forth one.
OMG, yes!
Every time I come back, now – which is many! – when the picture loads I think “Jazzpaws!!” and have a happy laugh. so thank you!
…always wondered how tube socks were made! Very anerable when new!
Jazz hands, hahahaha, ScoutsMom… and belleh wrinkles!
Are there even more babies in the upper left corner?
PS: ”
Ferretmonger”!!
So much pinkness!!
That would have been my exact comment.
Let’s see, a group of ferrets is called a business. This is several very young ferrets (little kneesock stripes haven’t even come in yet) so I’m going to call them a “startup.”
sign me up for to invest some venture capital in this endeavor!
I love the whole idea of a “business of ferrets.” Such awesome visuals.
True…I’m picturing an office with ferrets in wee pinstripe suits, making copies, hanging out by the water cooler, playing WOW and checking out CO when they should be completing their bi- weekly status update reports on the status of their reports that explain how to write a bi-weekly status update report. Oh, and they work the night shift.
And eat in the ferreteria!
oh my gosh. Perfection.
so if somebody starts “giving me the business”, does that mean they are going to hand me a bunch of ferrets? Yay! Oh, and, based on Mr. Pants’s defish, I think “incubating new businesses” has a whole new meaning!
Oh my goodness! This is the first time I’ve ever seen baby ferrets. They are incredibly cute!
GROSS!!!! how can you talk about eating the scrumptiously cute babies; with your eyes, maybe.
I like how the little morsel on the far left has his little paw over his eye.
“Dont eat me!!!! im inocent!!!!” Says the second to last ferrit
babies were adorable but NOT TO EAT….
