Hi Reet Your quite right the best ferret food is small animals, fir bone and feather included. Most members of this list would have hysterics if they knew what most UK ferret workers feed their ferrets. The ferrets seem fitter and we do not have to feed hairball remedies or extra vitamins. My ferrets never see a vet (except the hob now called Noballs) the last 4 to pass over the bridge were aged 7 8 9 and 8, the live ones are 7 8 and Noballs now 3 fixed at 2. Remember in the UK we do not usually fix our ferrets. Keep up the good work Chris. [Posted in FML issue 2753]
