mice for ferrets?

[markieboi 0]

i know what u can and cant feed to ferrets to a certain degree but i been brought round a few mice that where caught in a trap and was wondering if i could feed them to the ferrets not a big meal but still i rather that than be wasted they look healthy ect or is it not worth it?

I know people feed them frozen ones from the pet shop , but if theres a chance they have had some poison i wouldnt, Ditch will tell how fast that stuff acts , i dont have a clue

And you get a little tent in ye trousers watching it, don't ye? Top Criminoligists have long since made the link between such behaviour and Serial Killers. The Anti's, so avidly monitoring this forum, have long since copied out your patheticaly immature and senseless utterance and will by now be juxtaposing it, in their own places, with all this " Respect Your Quarry, Dead or Alive " stuff.

 

Bravo. You're a real little walking, typing nail in the coffin of something you don't even understand, aren't ye?

 

 

Regards feeding dead, wild mice to ferrets, Mark? Naah. As ye've already worked out, mate; It's really just not worth the risk. I won't bore ye with a load of pest control industry mumbo jumbo. But suffice to say I know what I'm talking about, around modern rodenticides, and no way would I advocate feeding wild caught rodents to ferrets. There's just no reason for it.

I fed mine a mouse once. Done no harm. But i take your word that some could. But can ye go into a little more detail for us mate?

 

Nice one

Thats not the point though , as already been pointed out , repect your quarry,

[Ron Weasley 83]

When I had a major mouse problem in my kitchen, I trapped 24 mice over about 10 days. I fed them all to my ferrets with no problems.

 

If there's any chance they've been anywhere near a rodenticide, then dont't do it.
