We discuss the behavior of free perfect staggered fermions and truncated versions thereof. The study includes flavor non-degenerate masses. We suggest a new blocking scheme, which provides excellent locality of the perfect lattice action. A truncation procedure adequate for the structure of staggered fermions is applied. We consider spectral and thermodynamic properties and compare truncated perfect actions, Symanzik improved and standard staggered fermions in two and four dimensions.
