I recently (Friday) got a new ferret from Path Valley Farms. My 15 month old ferret Nutmeg now has all of the symptoms of ECE (still in the diarrhea stage). Info from the various ferret health documents that this is not uncommon for new kits to be carrying the infection. However, Nutmeg infected another ferret (now deceased) with ECE when she arrived as a kit from Path Valley. The ferret health documents seem to indicate that once a ferret is infected, that they don't get the disease again. Therefore I thought that she would be "safe" if I brought another ferret in. So assuming that she is infected now, is this a second round of the infection or was she just a carrier and therefore not infected as a kit? Any ideas? -------------- Nutmeg is fairing much better than my previous ferret with ECE, she is drinking on a regular basis by her own, although I'm not sure if she is eating on her own (so she getting fed chicken and gravy baby food). -------------- Kenny [Posted in FML issue 3846]
