Next, find a reputable breeder that has been in business for at least five years. Do not go to the wild and bring one home. Skunks have been bred domestically for more than 200 years. There are enough of them, all with their scent glands removed at four to five weeks of age, to go around. The most important thing to do now is to find a veterinarian who will treat your skunk.
Skunks now come in brown, white, gray, blonde, lavender, black and any and all shades in between.
Skunks come in all colors but blue and green and even that may not hold true next week. They all, however, have their distinctive and charming white stripes or swirls. The babies will not be ready for homes until the first or second week in June. So you now have time to get ready for the new addition. Skunk proof your home.
