Personally, I'd be leery - the chicken ingredients are first, sure, but then it's grains and berries and a lot of inessential (arguably bad for ferret diets) stuff. It does seem to have a hell of a lot of grains and vegetable ingredients for a carnivore diet. I don't know how relevant my opinion is to you (as a raw food advocate, I mean), but I'd personally try to find out what the percentages of the first two ingredients are like, compared to the remaining ones, before I trusted it. - - - - - - - - - - - - - Fox Lee: The Girl Your Mother Warned You About http://hypercrescendo.net/foxlee/fls/ http://www.furbiddenrealms.com http://blurty.com/users/leechimera/ "The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places." - Hemingway [Posted in FML 5424]
