a friend lost several ferrets after eating slugs that had eaten slug pellets,so best not to let them if possible

it probably would'ent harm them too much if they ate the odd one, after all, our chickens eat them all the time, but wether you'd want to use slugs as a food for ferrets, posses the question, WHY

if its a case of masses of slugs, would you want to eat them, :sick: the money you save on your sunday roast, can be used to buy meat for the ferts,

One of my ferrets used to eat slugs when I took him out. He loved 'em, but once he eat too many and threw up, so so long as its just the occasional slug and they're not dining on them, then its just a bit of variety for 'em, after all its protein. All good.
