Kim,
I myself am an x-ray technician.  I x-ray people though, not animals.  But
anyway copies here cost $4.00 per x-ray.  The bad news is I doubt a vet
office has an x-ray copy machine.  Please have you vet contact their office
and ask to see the x-rays.  They are part of your ferrets medical file and
should not be withheld from you.  If you really needed them I'm sure a
letter from a lawyer would get them to lend you the x-rays fast.  Is your
new vet nearby?  Can he/she go there to look at the x-rays.  Have your vet
speak with the vet there, not whoever answeres the phone.  Offices do not
want to lend out the x-rays because most people don't bring them back.
Maybe you will have better luck speaking directly with the doctor, he may
understand the importance of your needing them.
 
Sorry, I'm a bit behind here and I don't know the whole story.  Is the first
vet trying to hide something?
