Ferret Vitamin

[Nigel1 10]

Hi all does anyone make or use ferretone or equivalent atb

[B.P.R 2,798]

I dont use it personally....

 

But mine had some over the weekend....and they went mad for it....

 

Could do anything to them while they licked it off their stomach...

 

Main ingredients are soybean oil and olive oil? I think....

 

Wouldnt be too difficult to make...

 

Have used olive oil to good effect

[Nigel1 10]

Do u put an egg with it atb

[B.P.R 2,798]

No idea....

 

But if you mix a couple of oils together..... and bottle it...

 

It will keep for a while.

 

Add an egg and id imagine it would go off

give them carcass and they wont need any extra vitamins.........

[B.P.R 2,798]

Despite the claims of 'vitamin suppliment'.....

 

Its useful for clipping nails....

 

And when doing 'ferret handling' with kids....keeps the ferts still

 

But only used it for the first time at the weekend....and it does seem to keep their attention.

[albert64 1,882]

alright Lee, never clipped a ferrets nails in the 40yrs ive kept them mate

but I can see where your coming from regards the young un handling them....

the last thing you want is a nip with him being so youmg

theres paste called ferretvite and you also can get ferrettone pets at home used to sell a vitamin suppliment for ferrets cant remember what its called

I got some of pets at home ferret malt paste stuff, just because I wonderd if they were having trouble with ingesting hairs, sometimes they sounded like they had something in their throat. Otherwise it was good for cutting nails and training them. Olive oil for me otherwise.

yes only use it when I clip their nails every 2/3 week. Albert64 im suprised their nails arnt curled under their feet, my lots nails get long and they're

on concrete floor.

iv got ferret vitamins in a bottle, it says to put a few drops in theyr water or food, but they seem to know its in there and wont touch it, so iv stopped putting it in now,

[big country 8]

My ferrets used love that ferretvite and like yous I used it when I cut there nails when I used to keep ferrets

[Country Joe 1,411]

I got given a bottle free gratis, For most part of the day my Ferts are running on paving slabs, never need to do the Jills claws, there always on the move.

But the Hob is a bit of a lazy sod, and sometimes I give his nails a clip.

Like what has been said, I just put a blob on his stomach, keeps him well occupied, and can trim his nails no bother.

this is the only time I use it.
