You mentioned 'starting' duck soup. What are you giving the ferret right now prior to the Pediapred (prednisolone)? He should have some kind of food before giving the Pred to prevent irritation to the stomach lining.

When I have older ferrets needing more Pred, I usually go to the 3 times per day. But, I always give them their chicken gravy BEFORE any Pediapred. This has worked for me. But, I'm not a vet.

Good luck,
