***If there are any reader out there that has received BAD FOOD from a dealer.*** (Then the dealer needs to replace it.) If the food smelled bad , THEN DO NOT USE IT. I don't care what a dealer tells me. If he thought all the ferret would get would be diarrhea. Everyone here know what diarrhea can do to a ferret, and just how quicker they can get sick. The cost and time alone to treat a ferret is priceless with their health. And with 15 Ferrets, No Way.... If the dealer likes getting diarrhea, then let him enjoy the pot, Not my ferrets. I would like to know where the food was purchased. Because I will not buy food from them . And believe me Donna I think they should replace your bag of food for you. Don't listen to any dealer, if you have doubts on the food you feed your pets. And it smells, something is wrong.. After dealing with ferrets daily, as owners we know when things are different or not quick right... Dealers don't have to sit up at nites with sick ferrets or carry them to the vet. And if any of your ferret get sick or dies, I really don't think that bag of food is quite worth the grief. A good company and a reputable dealer would replace this food and quick, no questions ask.
