Subject: RE: Re: what are people feeding ferts around the world?

Polecats and feral ferrets in the UK eat mainly rabbit rats
and mice with slugs worms and insects when food is hard to
find, in France their diet is mainly frogs fish and insects
with rabbit rats and mice as they seem to prefer the wetter
areas there. They cannot digest fur or feathers and if you
feed whole carcase they eat it from the inside out leaving the
rabbit skin and fur, they eat the chicken skin but make nests
with the feathers. I have never tried shrimp but my lot get
one large raw egg each a week. Chris.
