My guys LOVE chicken and turkey...and it's good for
them too! They snarf and growl at each other as they
take their pieces to their favorite stash spot. Little
bits of any meat are generally okay....some of my guys
like ham or turkey burger, but roast chicken or turkey
is definitly the fav.

A less acceptable, and only occassional treat are
Fruit Loops. They have a lot of sugar but....they go
NUTS for them. So I allow them to have a couple on
holidays like Christmas and Easter, not often at all,
but who can resist a pathetic, Loop deprived ferret?
YMMV, and be specially carefull with insulinomic
ferrets.
