burny2011 12 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) vitalin ,because it is including fresh chicken and premium chicken meat meal for maximum palatability and digestibility.as you all no that ferrets are carnivoresit is ESSENTIAL that ferrets digest HIGH levels of meat to prvide the NECESSARY PROTEINS THAT THRY REQURE and in VITALIN there is 40 persent PROTEIN in VITALIN .do not feed less than 34 persent protein ever Edited March 24, 2011 by burny2011 Quote Link to post
Jingo 6 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 go for the j wellbeloved, can be a little more pricey but if its not getting much fresh meat in the summer then it makes up for the protein, or use the cheaper stuff and make sure ya take the old meat out before the flies get at it Quote Link to post

rob190364 2,594 Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 I've found any dry food makes ferrets fat, better feeding them meat.....I get all mine from tesco, chicken wings (£1.50 for box), liver (60p), mince (£2 for about 800g), turkey (about £1.50 for a leg). When I put mine on dry food they piled on the weight and became proper lazy. Does anyone else find this? I wasn't overfeeding them either, I was only giving them a handful between them each day and they weren't eating all that! Quote Link to post
