Jeff, I have 2 ferrets with the same thing, I want to share with you what another shelter shared with me and I went and ordered it off from foster and smith ferret store. It's called acidophilus it's a digestive tract conditoner I hope I spilled it right but anyways I used it and am still using it on these 2 and they are doing alot better with it. All you do is put 3 drops of it in their soupies and belive me hun it works or you can give it to them stright but it does taste nasty to them is why I put it in their soup. I thought I was going to lose Bentley and Alby with this ibd issue but belive me it works, if I had an extrea bottle I would send it to you but I dont, I hope this does help you out,, hope you'll try it.. They kids are more active and even gaining their weight back and im very pleased with it it took a couple weeks for it to start showing results.. Hope you'll try it. Sorry for my spelling.........
