lorelei0922 2 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 hi does anybody feed there ferrets day old chicks.if so where do use get them from. cheers s we feed DoC once a week... not as a staple for sure they aren't as full in nutrients as needed we get ours from a pet store or honey brook farms petstores run between 4-10p per chick and online is cheap providing you buy in bulk lol Quote Link to post
will.f11 24 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 I see it as the same amount of nutrients as an egg. they like to have a few every now and again though Quote Link to post
JordKil 0 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 i buy them for my reptiles and such at livefoods.com or frozendirect fairly cheap (cheaper the more you buy) Quote Link to post
stubby 175 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 i dont, feed them their natural food dont want or permissions getting upset with a lost ferret killing poultry so your saying, if a hungary lost ferret, that had NOT been feed day old chicks, found its way into a hen house, it would'ent try to eat them Quote Link to post

Canberra Stu 0 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Ok novice question here but... isn't there something about DoC's that causes hair loss (or some other problems) in ferrets? don't know where I heard but so thought I'd better ask... Quote Link to post

Thats only if you feed to many, as they are full of protein. They are good food once a week or so but I wouldnt only feed them. Sorry have got to ask, it has been bugging me for ages lol. Is that a dead horse in your avatar?! lol i cant see it very well. ATB, HJ Quote Link to post
Kay 3,709 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 I stopped feeding chicks as they made the ferrets cough Quote Link to post
