BEST DRY FOOD

[Country Joe 1,411]

Hi,

Like Dog food, there are a few out there, I plan only to feed dry in hot Weather, and when I am away for a couple of days, any idea what is best dry feed? or do they all have the same ingredients?

Far as i understand it look for one with min 30% meat protein and around 20% fat.

 

 

I don't use a dried for my ferrets, but I reckon James Wellbeloved Ferret to be pretty good in substitute of a natural diet.

Hi Guys,

 

JWB is fine as is Alpha ferret feast.

 

For the best price on JWB go here:

 

http://www.feedem.co.uk/small-animal-c129/ferret-food-c147/adult-c149/james-wellbeloved-complete-ferret-food-20kg-p6834

 

 

With Post it's about £28 per sack.

 

Alpha is also £13.99 per sack for 10kg plus post.

 

It will last ages and have all the right nutritional elements for the ferrets, dog food may seem cheaper but it doesn't quite have the same protein content. Would you feed cat food to a dog? Same sort of priniciple.

My local Animal feed store only sell Chudleys, is it as good as Alpha, as Alpha appears to get a good name, Ive heard not to touch Pets At Home.

we are in a situation where we are having to change with Vitalin going bust.

 

JWB is an ok feed its Turkey and not chicken though, but find they crap a hugh amount, and can stain the teeth, nt to much of a probelm if they have alot of meat as well.Price is way to high as well.

 

Chudley is terrible I never had a normal poo with it always seedy.

 

Thinking of using seletive (use to be Frankie ferret) a little exspencive but seems to be liked.

 

at the end of the day it what your ferrets and pocket can cope with.

Canis lupis see link above jwb is not expensive.
