Okay, so I've had my 2 adoptees for 3 weeks now. So far, I'm slowly
switching them over to better foods and it's working out fine. Our
poop is a little runnier but it's not diarrhea or anything. Right now,
they're getting used to Zupreem. After they're eating only Zupreem, I
hope to add in some EVO. They are also receiving a little bit of a raw
foods "soup" everyday. I know that I definitely want to supplement with
raw but not sure if I fully want to switch to raw as I live in a very
small town and it's very difficult to find anything in a 50 mile
radius.

Anyway, in the last couple days I've noticed that my male ferret,
Benny, doesn't have the energy like he used to. I'm not sure if he's
just calmed down from getting used to his new home or what. On Tuesday,
after a while I noticed that I couldn't hear his bell anymore. He had
burrowed in a pair of my daughter's old sweatpants underneath the couch
and fell asleep! Today he did the same thing. It's like, after he's out
of his cage for an hour, he gets tired and slinks under the couch for a
nap. So weird. The female ferret, Joon, doesn't do this at all. She's
constantly on the go but then, I was told that she's a couple months
younger than him.

He has no other symptoms or anything, so I don't think he's sick.
They're both fairly young too. He eats and drinks and poops all the
time. So, do you think he's just used to his new home or something?

Thanks.
