Sorry to hear that pal not much worse than seeing your stock suffering. Mines still getting about just losing his back legs abit dosnt seem to be in pain but like you say if it gets any worse will have to pts. Good luck with the ferret

Not sure if my memory is right here but I think somebody on here said once when something like this cropped up once before. Think he said feed a calcium supplement that they feed birds. Really not sure about it though.

Cheers Arry
