No, the point is that what many people all over the world
including myself know as "chicken (or other meat) babyfood" is
something that could not possibly be fed by any right minded person
to any farret for any reason, and hence I was wanting to clarify what
I was reading in this list. As I mentioned in my last post, via
private emails I have learnt that babyfoods in the US are rather
different to most of the rest of the world. Some contributors were
kind enough to give me suggestions for what they believed to be
nutritionally better ( but equally digestible) repalcements for the
unobtainable "babyfood"; Bob Church's Chicken Gravy was one.
The fact remains that whether or not babyfood is bland, easy to
digest, convenient, etc etc etc, in the form YOU feed it to to
ferrets it is not available in many places outside the US. Would YOU
feed a ferret Carrot Kumara and Chicken Casserole ( meat content
approx 5%)? I don't think so!
