Wouldn't it have been better to get such information BEFORE buying them ?

 

Any how mine get allsorts, Chicken Wings, Pigeon , pheasant, rabbit, mince beef aswell as having dry food i use alpha.

 

i scoop out turds daily remove uneaten raw food and change water. clean out every 2or3 days.

 

 

P.S Handle Handle Handle as much as you can, and have plenty of stimuli in the cage/court/run good look pal

should of researched first matey. Agree with Deej although in hot weather I feed them dry food only because it helps with keeping flys away. Also make sure they've got plenty of fresh water every day and food

i know the basics as my mate has plenty of ferrets but just wanted to know more details and thanks for the tips and can they had to many roar meat

[Deej 22]

This time of year i feed the raw stuff at night when its cooler and take it out in the morning, they will eat what they want and stash the rest so you need to get it out to reduce the flys, i've also been told don't feed them any pork.

[dunkers87 5]

Yea pork is a no go with ferrets. I always feed mine in the morning so that's why I don't feed um meat when its hot because by the time I get home from work flys would in there. Yea always take out the left others even with dry food.
