Country Joe 1,411 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 I wouldn't bother usually, but I recently bought a Hutch from a Lass who worked in a Vets, and she gave me a bottle of Ferretone as a freebie, so I have been adding a half teaspoon to their food. Quote Link to post

The one 8,482 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Whats wrong with fresh meat and clean water are you suggesting we need a top up .On what they would get in the wild ????. Quote Link to post
ferret100 47 Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 It really depends on your ferrets diet as to whether additional vitamins/FFA's/minerals/amino acids etc are necessary. Excess fat soluble vits, such as A & D, contained in organs such as liver are not recommended, but excess water soluble vits are of no consequence. Amino acids such as Taurine, are vital to ferret health and are relatively low in dietary muscle tissue. Tbh, this goes on and on. I'm not sure what answer you expected, as many on this forum have little clue regarding the appropriate dietary requirements of ferrets. I feed a mix of quality dried ferret food brands, a balanced mix of meat, organ & bone, plus various supplements. It really depends on the vitamin supplement you are talking about, what it contains and whether it is necessary in relation to the diet your ferrets already recieve. 2 Quote Link to post
