Not that I can think of. Pedialyte has electrolytes in it,
plus glucose. I am not sure getting the extra glucose
would be good for some ferrets that are eating normally,
and not sure the extra electrolytes would be good either,
especially if you have older ferrets that may have kidney
issues.
However, if you just mix it in, you are probably diluting
so much that you won't have to worry about it too much
either way. I am also not sure if it would be a good
idea to let it sit around all day or even two days, until the
next water change. Not sure it would do any harm, but
with the glucose maybe promote growth of bacteria or
mold if sitting? Just a thought.
