Subject: Re: Baby ferret nursing formula????

You are probably doing fine with baby food gruel but I
have had great success by soaking Hills Kitten formula
pellets, until they are soft, and blending it with the
baby food.
Be careful with AD. It is great for sick animals but
is not nutritionally balanced for a kit. It is high
in calories (which they need) but low in fat (5%) and
most important of all PROTEIN. It only has 8% and
kits require around 30% min or higher.
The high caloric content can also cause diarrhea wich
will lead to dehydration.
Take care,
Jim
