In a healthy ferret so young I wouldn't think of ulcers first, but I
would wonder if there had possibly been a problem with dental
eruption which needs vet care (tooth through the palate, entrapped
decideuous tooth, etc.), or if the ferret is still a careless eater
and catching kibble in the palate.
Adult dental eruption for those teeth which are pretty consistent
happen in approximately weeks 7 through 10 and 1/2 (different teeth
in different weeks), and you can find dental eruption charts in a
number of places if you want them.
