I haven't found chicken necks yet only turkey necks but we're shopping for their food tomorrow so I will take a look at the asain market! And okay I'll go and buy a cleaver. I did have a question I am getting a kit soon he will be about three months old when I get him are they able to chew bone the way adults do?

Yes and because he is 3 months he should be an easy switch. Try him right off with a chicken wing and see how/what he does with it.

Alright sounds good. I'm pretty sure the private breeder does raw/wholeprey with her ferrets so he might be introduced even before I get him. Starting tomorrow I'm doing the beef soupie for a week they are being stubborn they eat it one week and not the next so hopefully if I get them on it for a week they wil continue when its down to once a week.

Yes, rodents are considered red meat! So if she eats mice you are good to in that area! So what would a weeks menu look like for you including mice?

I'm running into more issues because the only place I can find mice Is at petco and it's a huge rip off they give you only three for $12. so I started looking up freeze dried raw beef and woundered if buying a bag of that would be okay since I can't find mice in any other stores. I will upload a pic of ingredients I haven't bought anything yet and will probably just Buy the mice in the meantime but I'm trying to go with the cheapest alternative that will still be healthy for them.

The best place to get mice is from an online store like Rodent pro ot Hare today gone tomorrow. You do have to order in bulk for the best shipping prices and to ensure they stay frozen while enroute to you. I order from both places, different things and only have to order once every 3 months. Freeze dried should be rehydrated.

Yeah I already thought of the online thing it's no good I have no space for that. and all our have to do is add water to rehydrate it right?

Yes just water, but if she is mot eating the regular red meat, I'm not sure you will have any better luck with dehydrated. I hope so though!
