Probably from penury, stale bread, sour milk, and rotten eggs would have filled a hole when you were on the bones of your arse, still regret not having that second pain au chocolat the other morning

It's what I used to feed mine when I was a young kid because that's what I was taught to feed them .... to this day I can't understand why we used to throw away the rabbits head with the skin and guts instead of feeding it to the ferrets .... thank god times have changed ... I still cringe when I think what my poor ferrets had to live on and were expected to work hard .......

My grandfarthers both kept and worked ferrets around 1910 they always fed whole carcasses guts ,feathers , skin , the lot , they would never have dreamed of giving them bread and milk or pork product also up to the 1950s no woman would buy a rabbit that came without its head, heart , and liver.

Rabbits are only sold that way here in Spain, supermarkets and butchers are full of them

why split em up Ray, ive always fed em this way, and no harm done, does anyone on here split em up, i think not, my ferrets are flesh n bone fed, thats what they eat, thats what they get

Got the first ferret after it wondered into the back garden, my mother said ask the coal man if he's lost one, he hadn't so I asked what he fed his and he said bread and milk, she heard and bellowed from the kitchen "Milk slops!? Don't be bloody stupid, bloody tight old skinflint.."
