My pet ferret has turned yellow?

Hi. My pet ferret has turned yellow due to the fact I accidentally added to much mustard to her breakfast this morning. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get her origonal colour back?.I have been trying bleach all day?
Answers:
STOP USING BLEACH IMMEDIATELY!! Now follow these instructions carefully.
Firstly, gather the following items;
1 6ft length of 4x2,
1 20x12 inch piece of 3/4 plywood,
1 Frog,
250 Ladybirds,
3 4" nails,
2 2" nails,
Tube of superglue,
1 Torch.
Nail the plywood onto the end of the 4x2,(so it looks like a lollypop)with the 2" nails, then glue the ladybirds, shell side up, in a circle pattern at the top of the plywood, below that use 2 of the 4" nails to attach your yellow ferret, lastly, use the final nail to attach the frog to the bottom. Hey presto, you are now the proud owner of a Badger Traffic Light(patent pending) Now take it down to a wooded area and shine your torch on each colour for a few minutes at a time and look on with pride knowing you are saving the lives of innocent badgers.

Hi, scrap that idea, I've just found out that badgers are colour-blind! It'll have to be a Cillet Bang enema i'm afraid, best of luck!!
bleach huh you just probably killed your ferret and if you did your should be reported for animal abuse!!
How can you turn yellow from eating mustard thats just random
Sorry, can't stop laughing long enough to offer any useful advice.. Perhaps it would taste good in a sandwich with a slice of ham?
Thats dead sad u dont give them mustard for a a start i should no we breed ferrets u dafty mean what kinda person would give a ferret mustard wtf :S Need help you do! Poor wee ferret lyks..mean there was no need 4 this sick question either lyks.jus reli wrong
Try feeding it different combinations of English and French mustard, mixed with salad dressings, ketchup, last night's vindaloo and anything else you have in your kitchen cupboards.

Failing that, throw it in the washing machine on a 40C cycle.

For what it's worth, my friend had a ferret that turned a vile shade of yellow this one time. It happened after a night out on the town (the friend, not the ferret - it was stuck at home, tied to the kitchen sink), but said friend forgot to lift the seat up during his last visit to the toilet. That ferret just loved to sleep on the potty back then.
YOU GAVE YOU FERRET BLEACH . BLEACH WILL KILL IT .AND YOU DONT GIVE FERRETS MUSTARED EATHER. .if you love and care for your ferret than please get a book called ferrets for dummies it is the best book there is for ferret owers.If you dont than may be you should not have a ferret.
First off why are you using bleach! Are you trying to kill it! Bleach fumes are very harmful to your pet!!
A problem with chlorine is that it reacts with organic material to form trihalomethanes like chloroform, which is a well known carcinogen. Chlorine is a respiratory irritant. It also attacks mucus membranes and burns the skin. As little as 3.5 ppm can be detected as an odor, and 1000 ppm is likely to be FATAL after a few deep breaths. Exposure to chlorine should not exceed 0.5 ppm (8-hour time-weighted average - 40 hour week).
can cause severe respiratory distress!
Immediate Action
DO NOT induce vomiting. Give milk or water if ingested. If dermal (skin) exposure occurred, wash and rinse the hair coat thoroughly. Seek veterinary attention

Toxin
Sodium hypochlorite, hypochlorite salts, sodium peroxide, sodium perborate, or enzymatic detergents.

Source
Bleach, Clorox, and swimming pool supplies.

General Information
Household bleaches are generally mild to moderate irritants affecting the mucous membranes and esophagus. Animals rarely ingest enough bleach to cause toxicity and what they do ingest typically causes vomiting which limits the amount absorbed. The hypochlorite bleaches are alkaline resulting in alkali burns to tissues that contact it. Sodium perborate degrades to borate (see borate poisoning) and hydrogen peroxide which may irritate the stomach and cause vomiting.

Toxic Dose
Varies depending on source.

Signs
With ingestion, signs include drooling, vomiting, abdominal pain, and sore throat. The hair coat especially around the mouth and paws, may be bleached or smell like chlorine. If fumes were inhaled, signs such as coughing, difficulty breathing, or retching due to pulmonary irritation may be seen
Veterinary Care
General treatment: Large quantities of water or milk are administered.
try giving your ferret french mustard he may turn brown or soy sauce for light black
You didn't say what the original color was, but if mustard made your ferret turn yellow, try feeding it blueberries or rainbow trout.
first of all you just posioned yuor ferret and second NO MUSTARD third it wasn't the mustard i have three and a friend with an albino hers turned orange it is the water well it was for her. your best bet GO TO AN EMERGANCY PET HOSPITAL NOW like 2 hours ago they can tell you more but be ready to pay emergancy vets costs i know and make sure i is a ferret vet.
I'm really not sure which is more saddening and alarming: the number of people actually taking you seriously and responding accordingly or your level of boredom and ignorance to even bother posting such an obnoxious question.
use a spray paint
