shepp 2,285 Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 I started giving the stinkers goats milk every morning a while back. Dearer than the stuff I drink but worth every penny when I see them tucking in Quote Link to post

Good idea that, something I've never thought of mr-lurcher, Cow's milk is not good for them really because of the lactose they have a problem digesting it so they will shit through the eye of a needle.

ferretinglife 0 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 just out off interest, what does everyone feed there ferrets? Quote Link to post
PoCk0 40 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 just out off interest, what does everyone feed there ferrets? Well it depends, you can feed them biscuits and/or meat. They love tucking into a rabbit every now and then but feeding them meat all the time makes them smell alot worse. Nice ferrets btw, they're loving the milk!! Havent tried goats milk before.

longdog13 36 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 just out off interest, what does everyone feed there ferrets? Complete biscs in the summer, (due to Flies) and when the weather cools down, almost exclusively Rabbit, with some chicks/ chicken wings too. Quote Link to post

I find biscs make them drink a heck of alot, and their faeces smell less when fed a meat diet. Quote Link to post
