Subject: Salt content

Both my ferrets really like Gimborn's freeze dried chicken treats for dogs.
One ferret eats it alot - probably more than her food (no flames please, at
6.5
I'm going to let her do what she wants within reason. Plus if I don't give
in
she starts biting the dog who is very good but does have limits).
Ingrediants are: Chicken, Salt, Sodium Tripolyphosphate, Natural
Flavorings, Mixed Tocopherols and Citric Acid.
Seems like a lot of salt to me - anyone know how bad salt is for ferrets?
