My friend Val just had a ferret positively diagnosed with Mycobacteria (probable avian strain) via biopsy. The diagnosis came from two separate labs. Dr. Williams has been notified and we are trying to get the slides forwarded to him. As of now, there is no known treatment protocol for ferrets but we are trying. I will keep you posted on Rhett's progress. So far he is holding his own. If anyone has had experience with this disease, please let me know. We'd appreciate any input.
