I'm having trouble finding another organ Pixie will eat. She'll eat liver and Heart. I've given her pork testicles and Pancreas. She doesn't like either of those. Any idea how to get her to eat something she doesn't like?
I will be posting a new menu soon. It's been a rough week.
Update
Pixie likes Beef Kidney!! ( It makes me want to hurl though. Smells just like Beef Liver. Ewww)

I have heard of some ferreants that will drizzle fish oil (a little bit) over the organs to entice them. Sometimes my dog is picky about organs and I will sear them lightly. Usually, that does the trick, and she will gobble it right up!

Isn't it a pain? LOL. Be thankful you just have one ferret to deal with.
I have to make soupies in my Bullet for my boy for rabbit. I hold him in my lap and finger feed him. First, I heat an empty saucer in microwave for a few seconds---about 30 sec but depends on saucer, then I mix soupie around with my finger making sure no hotspots. You may not have to warm food but my guy really dislikes rabbit for some reason (again,I do not put food in microwave).
I am going to keep giving him rabbit this way and hopefully he will get use to the taste.
Making, storing, and serving organ soupies.
After blending a batch of organs---fill up the cubes in an ice tray. After frozen, pop them out and store in a freezer bag.I thaw one or 2 cubes in a single baggie in warm water when serving a meal. Once thawed, I snip the corner of the baggie and squeeze out the food. I found this to be the easiest way to get soupies out of a baggie.
Maybe u can think of something more simple.

Thank you. Maybe she'll like a soup, at least I hope so.

That's what I forgot. Though I have asked the store I get her food from and they are always out. I will see if they can order some for me.

Start by mixing in a small amount of kidney blended in with the liver to a puree and spoon feed the organ meal. Work the ratio upwards until half and half over a few weeks  |
