Jaine, I started using this food when it was recommended to me by some of my more knowledgeable ferret friends. My ferrets really like it and their coats are gorgeous. I mix mine with ferretstore.com's superior and natural choice diets as well as proplan kitten food, just to keep my kids from being too finicky. Supposedly they are going to come out with a Evo Ferret food soon, so I'm waiting to see what that is like. Jen and the Naughty Nine [Posted in FML issue 5205]
