What about lactose-free milk? I was advised that they really enjoy a bit with some raw egg beaten in now and then, and it's true of my boys, at least. I can get the stuff from the supermarket pet aisle, tho' I don't know about anybody else. Relating to the other current diet discussion, I'm wondering how any ferret could not want to eat raw chicken O_o; Ru and Fin had both been on purely dry diets until they came to live with us, but they took to the real meat like it was Christmas. Even if it's a bit groady chopping up chicken necks with a cleaver and mixing different giblets together like a big meaty soup, they absolutely love it. Previously, I was actually under the impression that most owners fed their ferrets on raw food; I'm kind of surprised to hear so much talk about it like it's a rarity. What's the deal with that? What do most people on the list feed, anyway? - - - - - - - - - - - - - Fox Lee: The Girl Your Mother Warned You About http://hypercrescendo.net/foxlee/fls/ http://www.furbiddenrealms.com http://blurty.com/users/leechimera/ "Immaturity - it keeps you young." - The Sandman [Posted in FML issue 4776]
