Newbie, diet help?

[Deleted]

I am getting my first baby ferret soon and want to feed him a whole prey diet. I can get rats, mice, chicks, whole quails and rabbits around here. I can also get insects like mealworms and crickets. I don't know how many of what sized prey he should have a week to have a balanced diet? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

You'll want to feed a majority of adults, simply because of the calcium(not enough in immature prey). You can, however, offer younger prey as a snack or even a couple meals a week.
You'll need to give a minimum of 3 proteins as well
