I tried the 8in1 ferret food with them...it was a no go. They were
stressed out and not eating so I gave in served them Iams until they
adjusted. I am looking for a decent ferret food to try - there isn't
a lot of options at the pet stores. My first ferret, Keiko (the one
with insulinoma)eats Nutro Max Kitten. The pet store told me that it
was better than Iams. She has never cared for ferret foods. I know
they are better for her - especially in her fragile state - but I
have had little luck getting her to eat anything else and I can't
have her skipping any meals right now!
