Would this be appropriate for a ferret to eat?

They also have a turkey formula.

Definitely! But you'll need to add at least one more protein to those two for a balanced diet.

I use the niblets - it started out as a treat for my kibble brats . Now they eat about 1 cup per day along with their high protein kibble. They also like Dream Treats pheasant by Wysong.

There is a turkey flavor as well. Would that count as a third protein?

Can I add other things in to it? Like gizzards or a wing or some ground beef? Or will that throw the diet off?

[Sherry]

Turkey is a 3rd protein, yes And offering a wing a couple times a week won't throw it off, and would give the dental benefits they need.
I wouldn't bother with the ground beef TBH.

That is an awesome brand. I use the green tripe treats, the freeze dried nibblets and the frozen raw. unfortunately, i have to travel farther to get the frozen raw so i cant get it as often.

Yeah I can't get the frozen around me anywhere but I can order the freeze dried online. On days when I give a wing would I need to give some time between feeding the freeze dried and the raw wing? or is it not such an issue with freeze dried?

As long as the FD is rehydrated it's fine You should always feed his two main meals that way.
