HELP ferret owners (feeling like a bad fert owner)

Well i look after indy alot now (pratically mine), and all 3 were out playing as usual and for a few days they have been in a box playing and in that box there is a tin of oil paints, and i looked up and all 3 ferts had BRIGHT GREED face's, they must have eaten some, i called the vets and they had no idea about ferret's but one said to wipe it off with oil/butter (very hard but came off) ,a fed them charcol, so i burnt toast and gave it to them with milk to line there stomoch. they all ate except Tia (VERY fussy fert), i had to force it down her.
Then later they had GREEN running poop, so i guess its workiing.
I'll keep you updated, its just that for days they have been fine then they do this, (i didnt even know there was paint in there).

oh my! I sure hope your three get to feeling better soon, sounds like you are doing the best you can so far! Sounds like something my two would do.

Get to feeling better soon you three!
