SO to be sure that you're comfortable balancing will you make up 2 pretend menus that the girls might eat? Also is there anything else you'd like to work on or need help with?

Been busy and trying to figure out the menus for girls. It is hard as the food they eat is quite limited. Well lets try on and I wanted to add some other thing in as well and see if this works for them.
Menu nr. 1
MON- chicken thights bones and meat TUES- swine tail and chicken liver WED - grizzles and duck necks THURS- duck heart/ ground birds bones and meat FRI- chicken necks and duck hearts SAT- rabbit head/ chicken grizzles SUN- swine tail and duck eggs mixed with eggshell powder
Menu nr. 2
MON- whole rats TUES- ground rabbit meats and bones mix WED - grizzles and duck necks THURS- whole rats FRI- swine kidney + duck liver soup with duck eggs and eggshell powder SAT- rabbit head/ duck hearts SUN- whole rats
Not sure that it´is ok or not. I hope it is.

Pig tails I give smaller ends wiht smaller bones and they eat it, but do not love it. Duck necks are fine not problems and also chicken tihgs, they eat it all and they do love birds meat and bones. Not so fond of rats or pig thou. Thy also love chicks and young rabbits - rabbits up to 2 weeks old are their fawourite ones. I think that they are quite good whole food as they are juvenail not stillborn kits.

Even juveniles dont have the proper bone that adults do. Your menus look pretty good though! Mine arent fondnof quail, but they need their bone somewhere!

Ok, then I know and will keep them moderate as I do not get them very often anyway. I haven´t gave them quail yet, have not found some with reasonable price

Quiz 2:

Are gizzards a muscle meat, or an organ?
What percent of the diet should be organ?

Sorry for the delay Give 2 examples each of muscle meat, edible bones, and organs. heart or any silvers from animal meat are muscle meats; edible bones are small animal/burd legs, bird wings, chicken necks, organs are liver, spleen, pancreas. Are gizzards a muscle meat, or an organ? Gizzards are muscle meat. What percent of the diet should be organ? 10% of ferrets diet How many different proteins does a ferret need in a week at a Minimum? Ferrets need a minimum of three proteins; they ensure that there is variety and the diet is completely balanced.

I got some rats to try on and they eat it just well. But funny is that they rather heat head and tail and legs and left all middle part. I will give them today that middle part where all organs left and I do not give them nothing else. Will see how they react to that. But first then I gave them these rats, they was so excited to get it.
