Ok, I'm on alert for green poop, and black tarry poop, and...... I have
actually been a poop observer for some time now (-:  Despite the fact that
I've had ferrets for 1 1/2 years now (still a relatively newcomer) I get
very nervous about abnormal stools.  I don't feel 100% in my diagnosis of
normal.
 
My ferrets stools seem to vary in width, color, and consistency.  Can't
believe I'm asking for this but, does anyone know of a good reference to
check out stools?  I want to be able to clearly identify abnormal stools
so that I can be alert of any symptoms of illness.  Maybe there is a good
book or stool chart that I can look into.
 
Please let me know!  (my ferrets are so embarressed that I keep examining
their poop!)
 
Thank you.
Risa
