: ferrets that are domesticated have very few of their natural instincts left, as they have been domesticated for around 2000 years. But you are correct in a sense, and I would never trust them having contact with any of my reptiles. Ferrets often bite just to inspect other objects, which would include reptiles.

: : hi,chris.i don't really have any advice on how to keep the animals separate or the possible stress to the iguana but i wanted to say something about the ferret.In the wild ferrets will feed on reptiles. So depending on how much you trust the ferret......i would be really careful.

My cat and my ig are friends, they sleep together. It is really strange, my igs cage isnt closed and he comes out when ever he wants, and they play and my ig sleeps with his head on my cat!
