Dear Marla:
Stools are often a bit runnier with Gerbers Chicken, and may be a bit
less voluminous.
However, if there is not a health need, then it should be used as a
treat only (meaning that it should not result in him missing any of
his normal meals.) Possibly a half jar a day, but probably not a lot
more for most ferrets.
With kindest regards,
