Same here i was always told no to feed pork to my ferrets ,but try them on a wee bit and see how they get on .I take it they will be still born ?,Because theres something about stillborn animals or is it animals that only life for a short while after birth ?.

 

 

 

Thats the disease aspect. If they die shortly after birth i'd want to know why? Just weak or something up? Also depends what they are fed, if its an intensive farm they often feed steroids or hormones to pigs so maybe that could be passed on as well?

 

ide be taking notice of this post mate and i personally wouldent risk it for the price of ferret food.

its only a small place and i asked the reason for there death and he told me they are just the weaker ones that dont make it. they must be good to eat as he takes them for his dinner quite often

Mine have had pigs heads before and they love it, and dont seem any worse for ware. I wouldnt feed it as their main food source but ever now and again a lump of pork will be alright.

Too much salt is dangerous for ferrets and pork contains a lot of salt so I would personally say no but I am no expert.

 

Joe

Piglets don't pop out of the sow ready salted!. The salting preservation process comes later . Pork does have a reputation for going "off" quickly which is one of the reasons that it usually prepared for preservation or eating as soon as possible . Also pigs sometimes host tapeworms which can affect several other species including dogs and man . This another reason raw pork is frowned upon .

The odd fresh new-born should'nt do any harm. I've fed the occasional piglet but always erred on the side of caution by not feeding pork in warm weather and being quick to remove uneaten bits .

Give your local vet a phone and ask their advice not worth doing any harm to your ferrets, but its funny how as one of the previous posts says that you never get any pork in tinned pet foods
