I found a couple whole wings I can cut into the bigger pieces if you would like I wasn't able to get a poop pic today or last night though after the beef, when I get home I'll check the litter boxes and see what they look like. I saw Mauser eat the beef and cat ate but not sure if poppy did, she didn't eat while she was out running around anyways. She could have tried it while she was caged though, just don't have proof. I can try again Wednesday if you would like Yes let's try again Wednesday How was the organ meal this morning?

Ugh did not go well, only a few pieces of liver missing from the plate and I don't think any of them ate the chitlins. I gave them wing tonight in thirds and all three got stashed, only one was found before they went to bed so hopefully tomorrow morning they'll "show" me where they are hidden.

Apparently the bigger pieces make them very food territorial, the keep getting into spats over the pieces when there's more sitting on the plate 5 ft from them (twitch)

So did they eat the wing or just keep stashing it? Also with the organ meal how did you prepare it? Drizzle some soup with it? If the soup didn't work you can put a thigh through the processor and mix it with the chunks of liver and chitlins.

They ate the wing chunks, out of six chunks from 2 wings they ate 4 I was in a huge hurry that morning so they just got it straight on the plate, I have frozen soup I can thaw for them this week and put on it. I hope they still remember soup! Lol

I hope they still remember soup! Lol Yeah organs are really hard sometimes to get ferrets to eat. Let's mix it with some soup and see how it goes. They really need to eat their organs. Tomorrow is heart in the morning. How do they do with heart meals? Do they need soup on top too?

So I didn't see your post until this morning, I didn't try the soupie on it because I figured since they love salmon oil they'd love fish.. lol not that easy I guess. Mauser ate and cat ate a few pieces but poppy I didn't actually see eat. She likes to spit out what ever I scruff n stuff with her.

That's okay the soup right now is a tool for us so when we introduce new things in order for them to try we use the soup
