Subject: Re: [Ferret-Health-list] califlower ear: Vet or personal
experience

Hello,

I had a very similar problem with one of my group. It was suggested
that I
use a mixture of half mineral oil and half baby oil. This bring the
crude to
the to the top of the ear so it is easy to clean. You can use this
on all of
your ferrets. It all so might help with the mites, it drowns them.

Everytime(once a week) that I clean ears, I do this. The ferrets
little ears
smell good and it is not toxic to them in any way. Hope this helps
with the
problem.
