It's been several weeks now, and Bubbles is doing pretty good. She still isn't very big, and she has only gained about 3 oz's total, but she's alive, and that's got to count for something. The great news is, I did the Avecon ADV test and it came back negative. Thank God, woo hoo, doing the happy dance all over the place! I still have to test the others, but it will have to wait for the weekend. That way I can be sure they are all without food for at least an hour. I don't want to leave them without food all day long during the week, so we will do them on Saturday. That way I can take the food away over night, and test them in the morning, before they have a chance for breakfast. If any single ferret comes up positive I will do the blood tests on all of them.
