I feel it depends on where they're from. Ones I shoot on farms that are well away from towns are clean enough and the only food in their crops is grain, chicken feed etc. These ones I feed to the ferrets whole, generally freeze them whole and defrost one at a time as needed.

Not a breath of wind as i left the van and there was a hard enough frost so it was like walking on cornflakes. Spotted a big hind first but knew the rest would be near so spent an agonising few minutes creeping along the crunching ground till i could see the group, 2 calves and 3 hinds.
