Subject: [Ferret-Health-list] Stress Related Poops....

I read your post and a couple of thoughts came to mind. I have several here
that are on Pro Plan too. I know the coloring of the poop is from the dye
used on the Pro Plan. Is it possible that the dye is also causing the
runnies? Could the yeast in the stools be coming from the food? I have been
trying to switch them over but I think they are winning. :-)
