Well, I am taking in 2 more ferrets. I have 2 plump, not overweight, but healthy fur-brats already. the 2 I will be taking in can't weigh apound a piece at most, and they are very skinny. The woman claims she feeds them a food called Kaytee ferret food, which I have seen in stores, but she's closed minded about changing it. I was wondering, she says she feeds them like 2 times a day, fills their dish. But Chance, her male, chowed down half of my dog's supper when he showed up. She said he can never be satisfied. Supposing she's NOT covering up for not feeding them, then, why would a ferret be that skinny, yet eat constantly? Their both MF ferrets, as are my own. Well, if anyone has any ideas, let me know. I've already let them play with my brats, so hopefully it's not contagious. Thanks a bunch!!!!!!!!
