Ideation 8,216 Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Goats milk or lactose free milk is best as they cant actually break down lactose so there is no point giving it to them. I whip up some eggs and goats milk after a hard day. Quote Link to post

longnetter 32 Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Cows milk is a laxative particularly in ferrets. I believe it's the lactose that causes it.I give mine goats milk it's so easy to get and not normally too expensive Quote Link to post

Guest crobinc840 Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Not tried milk but my boys partial to wiskey, got to put it up high or wrestle him for it when he's out. Quote Link to post
ferrety f 23 Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Ferrets are lactose intolerant so stick to cat, kitten or soya/ non dairy milk ( i use supermarket own brand soya ) only about 65p a litre and keeps about a week or more in the fridge once opened since its been cold weather, i warm it up slighty in the micro as a go to bed drink for the little stinkers.. and twice a week i make them scrambled eggs with it for their supper.. goes down a treat Quote Link to post
