They ate most of yesterday's quail dinner, but only about half of this morning's ground pork+lamb breakfast. For a snack they got turkey gizzard in duck/goose FDR broth and they ate almost all of that. For late dinner they got turkey back.

They ate most of Friday's turkey dinner. For Saturday's lunch they got organ combo, but they didn't eat very much of it at all (maybe 1/5 of it). For Saturday dinner they got quail and ate all but a sliver of it. For lunch today I went off menu (because they didn't eat enough organ on Saturday) and gave them a half portion of organ combo and a chicken egg. They've eaten almost all of it by now, so they should be ready for their dinner in a few hours.
I took their weights again. Reska was down about 10g and Copper up about 20g.

They ate almost all of their organ omelet by dinnertime on Sunday, and they got chicken wing of which they ate almost all. For breakfast this morning they got ground pork and beef (about half and half) with no FDR.

They completely cleaned their plate by dinner time, at which point they got quail. Copper was wheezing a little bit tonight, but he had a good appetite so I'll see how he's doing in the morning.

I didn't hear Copper wheeze at all this morning when I cuddled them before feeding and work, so it must have just been some hair or something. We've had the AC off at our house this week due to some unidentified source of odor causing the whole house to stink, but the ferrets have had their own dedicated AC unit running and keeping the room between about 70 and 74 degrees.
They ate most of their dinner. For breakfast they got pork kidney and chicken hearts. As usual I only added water and no FDR.

They ate every bit of their breakfast today, they've been hungry critters lately. It's possible they've gotten to the point they like their food more when it doesn't have FDR in it. For dinner they got a nice, big portion of turkey back.

Still no AC in the house, and their room got up to around 75 degrees so I lowered the temperature on their portable AC unit a little because Copper is a bit extra slothful in the mid 70s degree range and I want to make sure he's OK.
They ate half or so of their chicken wing. They have a tendency to push food toward and off the back edge of their plate, but usually most of the leftovers are still on the plate for them to see in case they're still hungry. For breakfast they got chicken liver and beef heart slivers in warm water.

If one of these peabrains forgets to close the backdoor and it stays open for 10 min. the house becomes 76-81 for the rest of the day, the AC can't keep up lol

No, it's only their room that was 75 because the portable AC unit I put in their room wasn't set cold enough. In the rest of the upstairs it was closer to 85, which is more than uncomfortable enough for me.

You're almost completely FDR free now. That's really great. (dance)

They ate some of the gizzards, and most of their turkey back dinner. For lunch they got organ combo, but didn't eat much of it. This seems to be the meal they are the least interested in, I may have to begin adding a little FDR to it again or mix it with something else. They seemed to do pretty well with organ combo + egg, but that would have to be split into multiple meals.

They ate almost every bit of last night's quail dinner. For a slightly-late lunch today they got turkey muscle in chicken egg. Copper was hungry and had some right away.
