my older one ate some egg!!! i couldnt believe it! i had to put some ferretone in it but he was eating it for a few minutes which i think is a plus especially since i have to remind the guy to eat in general, whereas the baby eats all the time and also eats EVERYTHING! (no seriously i had a piece of bread out and he started to eat it... baddddd baby! lol) the baby wanted nothing to do with it, whats also weird about the baby is he doesn't like ferretone!... but i only bought it to help ease them into their new diet.
i also have a random question, so ferrets can eat bones, how come they can eat bones but dogs cant? how do ferrets manage not get a blockage immediately?

There is no reason dogs can't eat raw bone! In fact they need about 10% bone in their diet. It's COOKED bone that none of them can have. That splinters, unlike raw

As a treat only, and raw. It's naturally high in salt.

so i got the bag of Archetypal-1 food and its literally the consistency of brown sugar. its not pellets like i figured it would be. i mixed in some to there marshalls and hopefully my boys are just not hungry now, they didnt give it the time of day,i also added a pump of the grizzly salmon oil, so idk hopefully after i come back from work some food will be eaten, i also added a tiny peice of raw chicken and coverd it in ferretone (which ialso sprinkled over their food mixture) is the Wysong epigen 90 a pellet food? (or kibble) ? maybe i should try that.

yeah... idk maybe i put too much in, i tried to eye ball a 1-4 ratio think i just wasted a bunch of food, they want nothing to do with it. i feel hopeless. but the a.type-1 its suppose to be like powder? ill see if i can get a phone number from the web site. just looks weird.

Egg white is perfectly fine for them as long as it's fed along with the yolk.

While you are waiting Meli, just add a sprinkle of the dry Wysong's crumbled over the kibble Not 1/4-3/4. Mix it in well. If necessary, break the kibble up so they have even more trouble picking it out.

actualy the bag i got its basically pure powder... i found myself adding more marshalls... i thik maybe the salmon oil did it, even i notice its quite potent. no success yet, they're both sleeping now, i did what you said for tommrow, i have in a bag a 1-4 ratio of old and new food together.
