Hello All I feed my ferrets kibble, available 24/7. I also feed them soup every night. My kids are healthy and happy little trouble makers. I am interested in "trying" raw chicken. I have a couple of questions about giving my ferrets raw meat that I'm hoping someone can help me with. Does anyone feed all three, kibble, soup and raw? If I was to give them lets say a raw chicken wing or neck... Which is better to start them on, (wing or neck)? How long do you leave it in the cage? What if they don't eat it right away, what is the time limit for leaving it there? In the summer months, don't you have to worry about flies or bugs (I'm not a big fan of bugs) I'm a little scared of feeding them something that might go bad (especially in the summer) Is a chicken wing or neck something that a ferret will eat "once in a while" or is it something that once they start they will want ALL the time? Please don't suggest that I feed live, I just couldn't...those little brown eyes staring up at me, nope, I just couldn't do it. But I would try a wing or a neck if it's something they would like and is good for them. If anyone does this or has tried to do this I sure would appreciate any information you could share with me.
