Hi! Since I'm hopelessly behind on my email these days, this may have already been mentioned..... Wysong as just introduced their new product, the first starchless kibble on the market. They've got a patent pending on the technology. The kibble provides 60% protein, some of which is derived from plant proteins. While I feel that the freeze-dried raw is a better nutritional option than a kibble for a ferret, it may be more affordable than the freeze-dried raw diets on the market. While I'm not a strong advocate of kibble, I understand that it will always be around, and for various legitimate reasons, many people will need a a high quality kibble as part if their feeding program for one or more of their pets. I know there are folks out there who feed raw and provide a bit of kibble between meals for insulinoma babies because the freeze-dried is so stinking expensive. There are also some IBD ferrets who do better with some kibble in their diet (there are different types of IBD). Depending upon your needs, this may be worth looking into.
