FERRET FEEDING SCHEDULE >HI!! I have a 1 year old ferret and i don't know how many times a day that >she should eat.sometimes I feed her 3 times,sometimes twice.how many times >should I feed her?? Please leave fresh, dry ferret or kitten food available for your ferret at all times. Ferrets should not be on a feeding regimen. They have very short digestive tracts, so they need to eat every 3.5 - 4 hours. Ferrets need to eat a food with at least 32% protein and 18% fat. The first few ingredients listed on the bag should be poultry/meat products. Corn should not be listed within the first few ingredients. Totally Ferret (available thorough mail order at 1-800-843-1738) or Iams Kitten (available in local pet stores) are both highly recommended. Of course, you should also make clean water available at all times. Cheers, Gina Hart/Sage Ferrets [Posted in FML issue 2035]
