Yes, get him off the Marshall Farm food. What you do is buy small bags of
(8 and 1 ULTIMATE), Totally Ferret, Ferret Store Brand, Mazuri, Zupreem, and
even some really good premier cat food like (Innova, Pinnacle, Eukanuba
Kitten) and mix all including the Marshall's you have together. Its
important to get ferrets use to more then one type of kibbles, in case you
can't find them and need to resort to other another food.
Its also important to get them use to a soft food, like Bob's Chicken Gravy,
(or human baby chicken gravy so if they get sick you have something to mix
their meds with or if they have to be spoon fed or syringe fed.
This is the best time to get them use to meats (rabbit, chicken, turkey,
duck, or even mice.)
I grind up turkey, chicken, duck, rabbit and then put it in plastic
containers and take out what I need each day and warm it up 10 seconds in
Mico-wave and give to them. This is much better for them then any kibbles!

Also sending you "Bob Church's chicken gravy recipe! The best in my opinion.
My insulinoma ferrets have been on it for 4 years!
Hope this help you!
