Baby Skunks are captive-bred and descented baby skunks (Mephitis mephitis). They are seasonal and are available in the spring and summer. Pre-order is preferred, as babies are often lmited and sell quickly. Baby Skunks are intelligent, affectionate, and full of personality; skunks make unique and engaging companions. With their soft fur, playful curiosity, and strong bond with their humans, these exotic pets can be litter trained and enjoy daily interaction—though they also love a cozy nap in a quiet corner.
