Question; sick ferret?

About 3 weeks ago my ferret was sick... He would only lie around and when we
let him out he wouldn't move around. This was just after I ran out of his
normal Forti-Diet. The pet store folks assured us that this certain cat food
would work, but they were ordering the normal food so he would have only
eaten this food for a few days. So anyhow, the changing to this other food
for a few days seemed to cause him to get sick. We took him in and they
found nothing wrong with him, but gave us some anti-biotics, and about 2
days later he was totally normal again. Running around and jumping. He was a
little fat before getting sick.

Only for the past two weeks he still drinks normally, but he hasn't been
eating much of anything at all.  He still dumps in the box, and we believe
it's the honey-seed bird food bar things. He kind of hoards it. But he
hasn't touched the actual ferret food at ALL. I would be more concerned, but
like I said, he still totally acts normal. When he's out, he's active and
everything, but he has lost weight. Does anyone have an idea why he's not
eating as much? I'm in CA, and this is a 100% indoor ferret. I don't think
any sunlight comes in where the cage is at.
