While trying to figure it out, I suggest adding plain canned pumpkin to the duck soup (up to equal parts soup + pumpkin), and seeing if you can get some Probiocin from the vet ... it is a mix of probiotics, and works a little better and faster than "just" acidophilus. Also, did I miss the big question ... what do the stools look like? Brown, yellow-green, like mucous or rice-water stools? And has the vet tried a stool culture? My first ferret had a bad habit of snacking on the occasional palmetto bug that worked it's way into the house, and she got a whopping case of salmonella ... and by the time we got that cleared up, she needed probiotics big time .... good luck, and please keep us informed ....
