I recommend giving a buffet, in case all the foods are unavailable at any
given time.  My current buffet (for my 4 fuzzbutts) includes primarily
Totally Ferret, with some 8 in 1 ultimate, Mizzouri (SP?) that I picked up
to try, and Maxkitten, just because they love it (a very small percentage
of the whole).  They definitely show a preference for the Totally Ferret.
I supplement with occasional Ferretone or poultry baby food, duck soup on
special occasions.  I stopped recommending Iams when they increased the
corn, and I had some ferrets develop urinary tract blockages.
 
BTW, dehydrated veggies and fruit have no place in a ferret's diet, as they
are obligate carnivores.  I'd hate to have to surgically remove any of that
undigested food when it causes a blockage.  Meat makes great treats.
 
More cents from my side of things,
