Ferret problems

as some of you may know, an aunt of mine took on a litter of 10 ferrets from a friend who works in rescue. All have know been altered and are back in their quarters which is a converted stable with a sort of avairy coming off that is about 7ft high by about 10/11 feet long. So adequete room, and it ha sall different levels with toys, and tubes, and ladders etc etc.
But they have a problem, the ferrets all bowed down t one of the big silver hobs, Albie, but since all ten having the chop or the stich (for the jills) the other ferrets seem to be picking on Albie and he has a fair few war wounds.
Does anyone know why this is?
