I have 'Squeaker' almost 3yrs. & 'Caramel'& 'Godiva' almost 2yrs. For the p=
ast couple of weeks I found some pink to red poop a couple of times in the=
poopy pans, couldn't tell who it belonged to. Then noticed that Squeaker s=
eemed to be getting aggressive with our other male Caramel, not bad at firs=
t but it got worse. Now we have Squeaker in a seperate cage, but when they =
all get out for their play times we have to watch Squeaker close cause he i=
s still going after Caramel. After we seperated them I found that another p=
ink/red poop in Godiva's pan, so now I have that question answered. I know =
that every three or four days there is a little pink/red poop in her pan. D=
oes anyone have any insight on this. She acts fine plays, eats, drinks as n=
ormal and still climbs everything, she acts just fine. As for Sqeaker we ar=
e wondering why he is all the sudden very aggeressive, he has always been s=
o loving and kind, even when we introduced the new kits, he was great. Just=
can't make sense of it. I don't won't to keep him in a cage all alone, but=
I am afraid he will hurt Caramel or Godiva (he's not too bad with her, but=
has caught her a couple of times). Just don't know what to do. I plan on c=
alling the vet in the morning and asking her some questions, but I thought =
I would see if I could get some feedback from some ferrets owners that migh=
t have seen this before.
Thanks ever so much.
