stubby 175 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 what are you feeding them on at the moment most on here will say RABBIT but in the past I've used chicken from the supermarket, worked out around £1.50 a day, but if you have 11, I'd say £2.00 some feed dry ferret food, as an alternative, but rabbit has got to be best Quote Link to post

Malt 379 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Raw meat & bones for mine & whole prey animals (birds, mice etc.) now and again. If not, I use raw pet mince & dog mixer. The shop where I get my pet mince from, has got me in some frozen mice. Quote Link to post

Lilyferret 0 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 What are cat nuts ? I think it might just be cat biscuits. Always remember someone on another forum saying that their ferret would only eat nuts and not touch meat. I was horrified until they explained that they meant dry ferret food Quote Link to post
FERRETBOY 680 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 we feed mostly rabbit mate but we do feed dry meal in summer helps keep the flys down but remember to provide plenty of water. good hunting rew Quote Link to post
