:Im Sarah..ive been going to some of the small mammal and herp chats for a few months now, but havnt came over to the small mammal chat boards...i have one albino, Kody, who was a rescue last august. he is now a beautiful boy, very friendly and outgoing. hes about 1 and a half, almost 2 years old. he eats raw meat, bones, offal, oils and some supplements, not kibble. he also doesnt get a rabies vaccine. hes currently my only ferret but next autumn/winter we are considering a few more (as this summer we are moving from Nh to Fl..) and look forward to more ferrets. i have some pics that ill post later, tho i have to run now =)

How DID you get your ferret to start eating raw??? I am a big proponent of raw feeding for my dogs and someone mentioned to me that some people feed raw to their ferrets, but I just couldn't figure out how esp. with an adult. It's hard enough sometimes just to get them to eat some fruits & veggies! I would really appreciate any & all info as to how you accomplished this as I just acquired a 5 month old that I would happily get off of kibble if I can. And please feel free to email me directly if you so choose. Thanks alot! Nancy
BTW- I also avoid vaccinations whenever I can- for my dogs & ferrets!
