Dear Friends and Ferrets, I think the Bob's chicken gravy is a wonderful advantage that every lucky ferret should be able to be fed. BUT what about the Chicken bones? Even ground up they still could have tiny splinters and cause serious damage. I have been making Bob's chicken gravy and realized WHY would you add the chicken bones???????????? I asked my Veterinarian about feeding chicken bones and he said Absolutely NOT . Why would You feed any Person / Animal" Bones in their food? I know that by boiling the whole chicken with the bones should be sufficient to release from the marrow the accentual minerals into the soup. Beware of the bones!!!!!
