Use devfs rules.
Pasting from http://www.stack.nl/~jilles/unix/freebsd-devfs.txt
Create or edit /etc/devfs.rules and put something like this in it:
[devfsrules_mybox=10]
add path 'fd0*' mode 660
See man 8 devfs for more information.
Then put in /etc/rc.conf
devfs_system_ruleset="devfsrules_mybox"
If you want to edit other /dev mountpoints (e.g. for jails) use
something like
devfs_set_rulesets="/usr/jails/jail1/dev=devfsrules_jail1 /usr/jails/jail2/dev=devfsrules_jail2"
