Christine, My guys first got the greenies the summer of 93. They got it again in the summer of 94. I had not taken them to any shows or club meetings. Interestingly, I took 2 ferrets in to the vet for a check up, and 2 days later they had the GD. My vet said no other ferrets had been in that day, so I don't know if this was a coincidence or not. It did go immediately thru my entire group - with the exception of those under a year and a new kit I had planned to buy stayed with a friend of mine for about 3 months - I missed all the baby days, but she diddn't get the greenies. I've talked to Dr. Williams about this, and I think it is unusual - but it can happen. It's hard to tell sometimes - whenever anyone sees green diarrhea, they immeidately think the greenies - I know I do - I can't help but be paranoid. But if it's the real thing, it will last more than 1 day and most likely everybody will come down with it. Debbie Riccio WNYFLFA Rochester, NY [Posted in FML issue 1195]
