Subject: Ear wax.

I've noticed that one of my ferrets, an albino hob, produces alot of
wax in one of his ears. Apart from it being unsightly he doesn't seem
to worry him but ferrets are very good at covering things up. His
ears are cleaned with ferret ear wax remover about once a month. I
wondered if he could have ear mites. He doesn't have straw or sawdust
in his cage ( he is a house ferret and sleeps on old towels etc) so
these can not irrate his ear canal. Any help or sugestions would be
appreicated.

Karen.
