Will my ferret grow his hair back in the summer with a Melatonin implant?

He has had it for a month and nothing yet. Do they only grow back fur in the fall, even with an implant?

You have asked several times regarding this problem…I am really concerned that you are waiting all this time and not bothering to get your ferret back to the vet where it obviously needs to be.
Hello,
Ferrets do "blow" there coat and grow back hair but with adrenal disease the coat will grow back with the aid of meds or surgery. The implat is one step. You may also want to consider a lupron shot. Once on this med your ferret should start to show signs of hair regrowth.
