Very poorly ferret

Hi guys,
I found this forum yesterday, really interesting and active. Bit about my guys before I ask for help. I have 2 black cats Cisco and Bella 2 minature poodles Rosie and Tyke and 5 rescue ferrets: Mischief, Mayhem, Nicodemous, Jay and Silent Bob. All are brilliant except Silent Bob, we rescued Him and Jay via RSPCA about 10 days ago so no history (no history on any of 'em) Silent Bob weighs 1lb 7oz. the Vet says he has no nasty condition just malnourished, his coat is very sparse again Vet says the reason is self preservation takes too much energy to maintain when not being fed. Any way we have tried all sorts including: baby food (nibbled), ground dry ferret food(no way), science selective ferret food (nibbled), gourmet cat food (nibbled), duk soup (no way)raw turkey mince, duck, chicken (nope). So can anyone give me any hints or tips on what we could try please? He doesn't do ferret paste or cod liver oil either. I will post a pic soon Thanks
