To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

I have a female sable ferret who was normal but naked when I got her
last May. I gave the 14 hours of darkness, melatonin, no fur regrowth,
so at the end of June she got a one-month Lupron shot. She got fur,
lovely smooth butterscotch fur. I have not given her any more shots or
drugs. She is with a group of three other boys. Now she has been gaining
weight and is just fat, looking like some porkers I have seen on a lot
of pred. I give her no drugs now so what is going on except she doesn't
get out for a lot of activity with so many ferrets (45)? Ideas, please.
