Subject: [ferrethealth] Oil buildup around eyes
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

Hi all,

Recently I've been noticing oil buildup around the eyes of all 3 of my ferrets. It began on just one, and we figured that it had to d with him being ill. He was treated and cleared with antibiotics.

However, now all 3 of them have orange rings around their eyes to varying extents. I've been washing their faces with baby wipes but I haven't noticed any difference in the colors.

Their diet hasn't been changed recently - and I don't bathe them often - maybe once every 4 months or so.

The vet said that it was just a lack of grooming? I don't know.

Any ideas?
