He's 2. Yes. I'm not sure, they are sending some of his food cuz he's not taking to mine well. I guess they ran out of his ferret food so they just threw some science diet in his dish. His old owner is mailing me some of the food he'd used to so it's easier for me to get him on my food. His tail isn't orangey, more of a dark brown/yellow. There aren't too many black heads, but some.
