Jack.308 40 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 When feeding ferrets say for example peigons do you gut them or just chuck the hole lot in? Quote Link to post

Jack.308 40 Posted July 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Does that go for all animals you feed them? Quote Link to post

patterdalejoel 669 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 i gut rabbits but thats it... i even feed them big old chickens with the guts in and they eat every last scrap of it Quote Link to post

pie-eater 377 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 I also put in pigeons doves and magpies with guts in. Rabbits and squirrels I just take out the intestines and stomach. Quote Link to post
The one 8,477 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 With bird i find i just get the gizzard back but with rabbits i was getting all the intestines back so i stopped giving them that Quote Link to post
PeterButler 0 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Remove the guts and stomach from everything you feed first because if there are any worms or eggs thats where they will be. Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Remove the guts and stomach from everything you feed first because if there are any worms or eggs thats where they will be. Not if you freeze them first. Also, i don't think ferrets can get worms. 1 Quote Link to post
The one 8,477 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 aye there digestive tract is supposed to fast ?. every body that asks about worming ferrets ive asked if they have seen worms in the scats nobody has replied they have Quote Link to post
patterdalejoel 669 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Remove the guts and stomach from everything you feed first because if there are any worms or eggs thats where they will be. i believe a decent ferret is wild apart from temperament, and mine get a diet consisting of such food a wild polecat would get, and thrive on it. worms? bullshit Quote Link to post
happyferret123 13 Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 My ferret had worms. Took her to the vet as she was loosing weight but had a bulging belly and they told me that she prob had something wrong with her intestines and that ferrets can't get worms and told me that she prob would only have a few weeks left. Put a post on here about it and ferret100 suggested worms so I went on worm patrol and I did see some in her poo so took her to another vet and they gave me Pancur 10% liq dog/cat gave her 0.25ml of it for three days and now 2 months on she is looking a lot better and nearly back to her original weight.
