It definitely does in humans! In fact, if a human doesn't brush their teeth and tongue after taking it---it will also coat your tongue in black. Not immediately, mind you, but it definitely turns black after a bit. This is usually most noticeable if you take it before bed and fail to bruth it off the teeth and tongue. I don't see why it would react any differently in ferrets.

My boy wasn't feeling well on Saturday-not eating and the poops. So I started him on some pepto. Sunday he was eating and stools looked better except they were a good bit darker. I know bleeding causes dark stools but was wondering if pepto can do this also?
