Thanks to all that emailed and called.  We found an excellent Vet in the
Boulder area by the name of Dr. Bock.  As many of you pointed out this
condition is not that rare.  Dr. Bock took care of the issue and our
ferret is back with his buddy and enjoying life again.  He doesn't like
the splint but it doesn't seem to slow him down much :-)
 
Again thanks for your kind words and concern,
TomT...
