Does anybody feed these to their ferrets? I know my ferrets eat the whole quail feet first but not sure if they will like chicken feet or not. I know it's kind of a snacky, I thought they might make a good treat for my dogs as well for the glucosimine. Also how big abouts are duck necks? Ordered from hare today and says 20 is only 2 pounds so fairly small I'm guessing? Nobody sells whole ducks or chicken around here with necks included so I ordered both, then I can switch up bone in meals somewhat. I have so much stuff coming and my rabbit order should be here the same week, gotta plug in the other freezer. Thank you tax time.

I picked up some chicken's feet for mine, but the blasted things had gone bad Got to get some more. I do know a number of people do feed them, and the fuzz quite enjoy eating them. Duck necks here are about the size around of a large chicken neck, but about 8-10" long.

My guy LOVES chicken feet. I usually feed them when I do a big meal of rabbit organs ( the mix from hare today). Along with the pumpkin I find the feet help to alleviate any really bad organ poops

Well feet were a bust with my two, they did move it, but didn't chew on it. My cat was equally unimpressed. The dogs were thrilled with them. I swear, dogs will eat anything.

I get chicken feet from Hare Today too. Last time my husband cut them all up, took a picture of the plate and posted it on Facebook as "chicken fingers." The dogs and ferrets love them. Maybe you could chop them into smaller pieces and warm them to get the ferrets to taste? I don't remember them smelling like much of anything, and the texture is not at all like muscle meat, so maybe they just don't realize it's edible?
