1. Where did you first learn about natural diets for ferrets?
here on holistic ferretforum
2. Please describe the type of diet you would like assistance in switching your ferret(s) to. Be sure to include if you are interested in feeding whole prey (live or frozen-thawed) and if you are wanting to FULLY switch to a natural diet or PARTIALLY. If you are unsure what kind of diet you want to put your ferrets on, please express that and we can help you find the best type of natural diet for your ferret.
I would like assistance on switching my babies from kibble to a raw diet.
3. Why are you interested in switching your ferrets to a natural diet?
I am interested because i heard a lot of good things about it, and one of my ferrets is so little and im hoping that this will give her more energy and let her get a bit bigger
4. Do you understand that switching your ferret to a natural diet can be a lengthy, arduous process? Its not an overnight switch. It can be a commitment of several weeks or even months. Your HF Mentor will be more then happy to assist you in switchng your ferret(s) to a natural diet, but you need to be equally as commited. If you aren't willing to tough out a potentially lengthy switching process, or if you have major life changes approaching (baby on the way, moving, starting school, getting married/divorced, etc) then it might be a better idea to wait on switching your ferret's diet until you have more time. Are you willing to make the commitment?
I am very willing to make the commitment
5. How many ferrets do you currently have? What are their names? Ages? Genders? Do they have any health problems? Are they overweight? Underweight? How long have you had each ferret for?
I currently have 2 ferrets:
Marbles - 1 year 3 months, female, no health problems, not exactly underweight but close, 1 year
Sully- 8 months, female, no health problems, not over or underweight, and 5 months
6. What diet do you currently feed your ferrets? (Please include all treats, supplements, etc)
zupreem kibble, N-bone treats once in a while
they are now eating soup at night around 9:00pm
7. Have you ever tried to switch your ferrets to a natural diet in the past? If yes, what happened?
yes they didnt like it, but i also had no idea what i was doing...lol
8. What additional information about yourself or your ferrets would you like to share?
9. How often during the week do you have access to a computer?
everyday
10. Please post a picture of each of your ferrets (if possible).
