This was so helpful, doing all my research before getting trying to adopt a ferret. Your videos + discord server is helpful, thank you!
Hey i am also looking to maybe adopt ferrets and would love to get into the discord if that is possible could you tell me how please thank you in advance
@@moonroo4939 its in the description of the video
Same !!
Bonka same I did a lot of research and I’m still doing more before I’m trying to get an ferret
The meme levels of this video were on point. I approve. "I'm here to tell you that's just.... too bad." was a beautiful moment
😂🖤
Yesss thank you so much, I’m rescuing ferrets soon and they have been fed kibble their whole lives :( I want to feed raw in the future but this will be a good start to feeding them better food. Thank you
What are you going to do to better your ferret's bowl? ʕ = •́ .̫ •̀ = ʔ

Pazuandfriends I’m going to give my ferret commercial raw diet when I get my ferret
I’ve been waiting for a video like this their not so many out their
I’m adopting a 7 year old rescue, and my vet is worried that weaning him off kibble could cause him stomach problems and anxiety. I appreciate this information. I live to serve my cat snake
Even though people might get annoyed that you never mention kibble I think it’s good that your willing to stand your ground and stand by what you believe. Good for you bryn!
I finally convinced my mom to letting me feed raw? Sadly though I don’t know how to start feeding them raw. I watched your other video posted last year but I don’t know what to feed them. Can you maybe make an updated video on transitioning your ferrets to raw video?
Kass S she made a video about that :D
Kass S sneak some raw food into there regular food and then after maybe a month cut out the regular food completely and feed raw!
THANK YOU! I have been waiting for you to make this🤣
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!! I’ve been struggling to switch both my ferrets to raw, one of them had no problems. The other one, he’s being difficult (but we will get there). But because of that I’ve been feeding a combo of raw and kibble to my ferret that did switch. I didn’t know I couldn’t do both. Thank you so much for this! ❤️
You look so much more comfortable and happy on screen! Love the confidence!
So nice to hear someone be firm with “I can’t suggest anything else other than raw or fresh foods”. That’s exactly how I am. Why have any kind of living creature in your care if you can’t feed it properly or at least be open to making small changes to improve what you already doing. Just because a chihuahua can live 30 years on kibbles n bits doesn’t mean it’s comfortable or thriving!
Thank you so much for this, I cannot feed full-raw to my soon-to-get ferrets because I’m still living with my parents and I don’t earn enough however I will still feed a semi-raw diet :)
That’s what imma do! It’s still good for them I’ve searched as long as their getting meats like chicken, beef, lamb, ext twice a day (can be cooked) and there are chew sticks with bones in it to add to the raw diet :)
So glad you stand for what you believe in. Your videos are very informative. Thank you so much!
how do you feel about feeding ferrets crab meat? i couldn't find anything on this, so do you think good/bad/don't recommend?
Thats fine on occasion!! :)
I am a new Ferret owner I am completely obsessed with my little girl and want the absolute best for her this video was so informative and amazing thank you !!! Also just placed my first order with mypetcarnivore 🤗 thank you so much for all the great information your providing and recommendations ❤
did you transition or go straight to raw ? x
Buy another ferret for them! Ferrets need to be in groups so they don’t get depressed and live longer. But it also depends on what you can handle :)
So helpful really want to switch my ferret to raw food just never could figure out how! I’ve been looking for raw diets videos for ferrets and finally came across your videos !
I loooove your videos about Ferret nutrition. They have been so helpful as a new ferret owner. Thank you for taking your time and putting all these together so nicely. If people don’t like raw feeding then definitely this is not the account they should be following.
Thank you!!
I can’t feed raw😭 but I love you and your channel ♥️You go girl!!! ♥️
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1l440gDRfI898lKzXJC5i4WaZPdJyrB5428uJc5ZwA8I/edit#gid=0 Here is a kibble chart to determine which kibble is best for you I feed the K9 natural one
@@DanielRamirez-kf8ef I thought she said that dr elsey was a good brand? Unless I heard it weong
It’s an ok brand just don’t recommend feeding it.
OH my gosh I had no idea about the liver or salmon oil, I've been giving both to my ferrets and I had to take one to my vet today because she was having stomach issues. Thank you so much for this video!
Both of my ferrets refuse raw 😫 I’m struggling to make sure that they stay healthy (not really struggling but very concerned because it stresses me since they refuse raw food, they are BOTH healthy and don’t show any sign of not being healthy.) I am watching this to make sure that even if they continue to not eat raw, I’d have a better idea of what I’m doing. Currently trying to convert them!
You could try to mix kibble with a tiny bit of raw and maybe something yummy like salmon oil! Just to get them used to it and then switch over
@@noemic.8966 Mine wont eat salmon oil or eggs, hes so picky idk what to do 😭
OMG THANK YOU YOU JUST HELPED ME MY MOM'S GETTING ME A FERRET also thank you for giving me all this information about them
OMG thank you so much this was VERY helpful! Thank you❤😊
In the Description there is “where I buy raw “ and I was wondering do you feed them one type of meat or do you have to mix the meats together? I’m a little bit clueless
I’m so happy. U actually did my request. Thank you so much 💜
Your videos are so helpful!!!Thank You so muchhh❤️❤️❤️
Homemade raw feeding is sooo confusing can somebody please help?
This is also helpful since meat is s3lling out everywhere because of the virus.Thaks for this and everything!Im so excited for my cat weasel!!!
thank you for thisss
I’m getting a ferret? I have so much time and u have helped me so much to understand if this animal is for me:)
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! Thank you so much, this has helped me so much ❤️❤️
Thank you so much!! I just simply can’t feed raw and I’m looking to adopt a ferret (maybe) soon. This was so so so helpful and I’m so thankful thank you posted this!❤️🥰💋
Thank you!!! I really needed this video, raw food diets are so expensive and hard to find
I am thinking of transitioning my ferret to a raw diet but I don't know what are the best raw meats to feed ferrets. I was wondering if you have any suggestions on what meat to feed my ferret?
U should check out the website "My pet carnivour", it's rlly good and balanced.
You should do a video on how much food to feed your ferret on a daily basis and how often to feed each meat
The nutrition industry ain't much better on us humans either.
Thank for this thorough review.
You just got a new subscriber!
im trying to do a bunch of research because im planning on getteing a ferret soon and your account has helped out SO much you have no idea. Thanks!!!!!
I watch your raw videos because I eventually want to switch to raw that and I love the sounds of your ferrets eating their soups
Awsome videos! Ive wanted to get a ferret for a long time and see a lot of mixed opinions on training feeding and taking care of a ferret. Thank you so much for all the info ^w^
thank you so much! i wanna get one or two ferrets in a few months and have been planning on just feeding a kibble but binging your videos is helping me realize just how horrific that can be to your ferret!! 💞
Hello ferret mummy here. Ferrets should always, always, ALWAYS be adopted in 2s. Only ferrets that are proven to be solitary and the human will have 8-10(at very least)hours of playtime. Also ferrets need other ferrets for many things like grooming and pretty much their entire quality of life. No human can provide what the second ferret does. This is all coming from a place of love. I Just wanted to share with you (life savingly) important info. Also I recommend ton of get any of those small cages sold in the pet store. Double ferret nation is the smallest you should ever have. Watch. All of this lovely woman’s videos. I love how raw, honest, integral, straight forward and I believe her to be 100% truthful. She’s doing so much for the ferret community. She’s the one they will do all the deep and hard hitting research and giving us the notes. She’s weeding out the bad guys here. Showing us which companies to trust. And not to mention that she’s proved herself time and time again through out her videos. Just giving you second opinion on who to trust. And I definitely believe she is the best of the best when it comes to keeping it real and having the ferrets best interest at heart. Many blessings.
I love your vids and your channel, I’ve been watching all of your videos so I know exactly what to do when I get my ferret. I was originally gonna get my ferret in July but now it might be in august because we are moving. When we move I will also ferret proof while moving. When I get everything settled I will get a ferret nation cage and a play pen for my ferret’s cage at night but during the day my ferret will roam around my room. My ferret will be the only ferret since my dad won’t let me get two. My ferret will have a good life though. I have a amazon list full of stuff for my future ferret. I will also try to find a breeder, if not then I will adopt from a shelter. And that’s just a summary of my plan for when I get my ferret, feel free to leave me tips :D
Your videos are awesome tysm I’m looking into getting a ferret and this helped a lot
I love your channel so much--- I've been thinking of getting a ferret, and your channel has been reccomend many times for good reasons. Definitely going to subscribe ^^
Edit: my friend and I are planning to move in together and buy 2 ferrets actually, because of how social ferrets are, and I don't want my future ferret to get lonely :(
I can’t really afford a raw food diet so I’m going to do a combination of raw and kibble I figure that’s better than nothing
I am getting my new ferret on August 13 and I have tried to watch ever video you have so thank you so much for your videos
Wow thank you so much, I’m going to get a ferret in two weeks and I will feed him straight up raw meat mix soo wish me luck!
I’m getting a ferret in 2-3 days and have been doing research for 6 months (were getting a boy by himself but he will only be alone for a little while bc we are getting another one soon) and ur vids have been so helpfu Tysm 💗
Hi, I’m looking to get ferrets, and I’m doing as much research as I can. I want to feed raw, but the easiest option for me now would be the commercially balanced raw diet. I’m just wondering what pre made grinds you would recommend from RFM, and how much to feed the ferret of those grinds per day. I can’t seem to find any info on it.
Can parasites be a problem when feeding raw?
Is it ok to feed some ferret kibble, a bit of meat , salmon oil, whisked egg and cat meat? Is that ok
Love your content; one nitpick I have is saying propylene glycol is like antifreeze. That claim is like saying margarine is like plastic. Just because the molecular structure is similar doesn't mean the chemical properties are remotely. PG is used in a lot of food and food grade things, it probably isn't healthy for animals but not for the same reason as ethylene glycol. I still agree that it should be avoided, just disagreeing from a chemistry standpoint.
The guys voice coming out of no where kinda scared me haha
How many pounds would you say a ferret would need monthly?
There us a ferret food in Australia called vetafarm organic, i have read a lot about how good it is but i was wondering if you could check it, just search it up on google.
I am looking into getting a ferret and this is sooo helpful
Could you tell me or make a video about what size should a ferret cage be if you only have one ferret. I know the cage should be big but If I only have one ferret what cage would be good enough? :)
I know I'm late here, but I still wouldn't go any smaller than a ferret nation cage (or something of the same size or bigger)!
Anyone notice that the door looks giant while the doorway looks tiny😂
I want to feed raw. I just don't fully understand how much to feed and what to feed. Ik that chicken wings, chicken and duck necks, eggs, quail, liver, hearts etc.. are good. But I think the problem is I'm scared to not give enough or give to much and not make it a good enough diet. I do know that raw is the best and that's all I want for my ferrets to be, and I too think it's interesting. It's just the prepositions and a proper meal weekly plan that's worries me.
Check out my mentoring program!! :)
@@Pazuandfriends Okay. Thx for the help😁
If u watch her vids her audio is so good if u have head phones in
I can’t feed raw beacause I live in a small town and no one sells everything for a balenced diet
See if mypetcarnivore delivers to your area :)
I don’t live in a small town, and I probably could buy the stuff, it just seems very complex and as I am a pre-teen, I don’t want to mix anything up and mess up the diet. ;-;
@@liberty8813 research helps a lot!
I got question can I feed my ferret canned wet food??
This was so helpful. I really want 2 ferrets (so they don’t get lonely) and I didn’t know how I would feed them raw, but this video really helped. Thank you so much! Also, for brushing their teeth, do they need toothpaste? If so brand of toothpaste/toothbrush would you suggest?
I agree kibble can cause cancer and tumers in your animals and ferrets are really sensitive to these conditions
I would really like to feed raw but my parents wont let me as the dont want raw meat filling up the freezer. I looked at the Clean Protein kibble but it doesnt ship to the UK but the Ziwi Peak air dried cat food does, ik you wouldnt recommend this as it's still dry food but is it atleast okay? It has kelp in it as well and idk if this is as bad as grains or not?
Well just try to find the best dry food and add water so they don’t get dehydrated
Is it okay to put water in good brand kibble and some other days have raw chicken? (For ferrets(
The question I asked was....WHAT CAN I FEED MY FERRET? Sorry all you did was point out "What not to feed"
Hey I was looking for a guid for when you first bring your ferret home, if there was a guide that I missed please link it and other wise please tell me what to do first thing when you bring him/her home
This was the video, that got me to feed raw
Brit:*Points ferret towards camera*
Ferret:Im not a *pointer*
look im getting a ferret soon and im kinda worried or nerviouse and im wondering if this is a good diet (Wysong Ferret Archetype Rabbit Formula)
Fabtastic video x
also is this one good (Marshall Pet Marshall Select Chicken Ferret Diet,)
did you know that Appa means dad in korean? super cute name!!!
The only reason I can't feed raw is because it does cost to much more than what I can provide for my angels I wish I could raw feed but I thank you for making this video it helps me out so much
Thank you for this information because I’m getting 2 ferrets for Christmas there names are biscuits and gravy . Biscuit is white and gravy is a normal ferret they are also a bonded pair . 🥺
Hi, I have a question. To feed a balanced homemade raw diet I just have to follow the schedule you provide right ? Now if I want to add commercially balanced raw diet where does it fit in the schedule? Can I even do that ? Also thank you so much you opened my eyes to the importance of balanced raw diet :)
Could you please send me a list of what I should be feeding them raw? Thank you so very much.
I will go out and just say Ethylene Glycol and Propylene Glycol are not very closely related, apart from nomenclature. Their chemical properties are vastly different. I'm not defending it in pet food, but propylene glycol is safe for human consumption. Meanwhile, ethylene glycol is poison. Kind of like how ethanol (drinking alcohol) is not very similar to methanol (poison).
Thank you for saving me some typing. This kind of statement tends to discredit a presenter, making them look like the kind of ignorant activist who will criticize a baby formula because it contains casein, which is also found in glue. (Casein, of course, is ordinary milk protein, which explains why Borden was known for both milk products and glue. But such people want you to think that the formula makers are trying to get people to feed glue to babies.) I also get a little leery when someone keeps mentioning "synthetic vitamins" as if they have a different composition and molecular structure than natural vitamins. This is not the case, since anything with a different composition and molecular structure would not BE a vitamin in the first place.
@@brettmiddleton7949 to me it just shows ignorance. For example, thinking that similar names equate the two chemicals behaving similarly (which is almost never the case). Or when people get all up in arms by "harsh chemicals" in beauty products. A complex name doesn't always mean the chemical is harsh. People just get intimidated by what they don't understand without doing their research ahead of time. Not to say she hasn't researched these foods. I think she's very well-versed in ferret nutrition. But I don't think all kibble diets are bad either, like she suggests. My ferret is kibble fed but he is imprinted on it so the best I can do is feed him a reputable kibble brand and be sure it's balanced.
I love that you Avatar The Last Airbender names. My dog is Azula. I have a male ferret named Oogie (was gonna do Appa but changed my mind) and then a female ferret named Raava.
I just got my ferret to raw it took about 4 or 5 weeks can u recommend different meats and prep tips
My one year old female ferret is super tiny and skinny and I recently got a male and he is only 3 months and he’s huge next to her. I have been told it’s because he is a male so it’s normal.
The wysong epigen 90 is insane! They advertise that they’re so good for your ferret because of their high protein content and their first ingredient is chicken meal. It’s insane to charge $25-$30for a 5 lb bag of food. For that much money you can feed raw.
I gotta say, love the channel! I'm interested in getting a pair and I'm trying to do as much research as possible. Are there any sources you recommend for info?
Her discord linked in her bio is good!!
My first ferret I got from a woman that wasn't taking care of her or feeding her right and she's 6+ yrs old. They only feed her kibble from Walmart and never any raw meat. I want to feed her the best for the rest of her life but I've tried every kind of raw meat possible and she will not have any thing to do with it. Do you have any suggestions?
How do you feel about the wysong feline wet food? I don't mean as the whole diet but I do FDR & kibble atm but since wet food is higher on your list I'm thinking of switching their kibble to that. They get meaty bones multiple times a week so teeth wouldn't be an issue.

my mom wont let me get a feret unless i feed them kibble, she said that raw diets gonna make them wanna eat us T-T
Do eggs substitute a dry meal? Or are they an additional source of nutrients that you serve with the regular dry food?
I've been turning to your videos before adopting a ferret . They are kibble fed so I've been looking at high quality kibble and slowly moving them to raw diet. I hope they take to raw. I wish we had more local farms I could buy high quality meat.
Hi, I’m getting a ferret and I’m confused on what to feed it, like i don’t want them eating raw meat, cuz like it grosses me out but can I feed it kibble like that only has raw meat in it and that is met for ferrets?
no kibble has just raw meat, they are filled with additives and binders to make them cheap and convinent, thats what makes it kibble.
Please please please don't get a carnivore as a pet if it grosses you out!
What are your thoughts on feeding ferrets whole prey, such as live or frozen mice.
Hello, I’m brand new to your channel and I have subscribed. I appreciate the information that you shared with us especially Where to buy the raw food. I am brand new owner of two 6 month-old kittens and would like to start feeding them raw meat. I do find it very confusing because I want to do the very best for them that I can afford and would really appreciate if it’s not too much trouble to incorporate talking about kittens and cats also and how to begin feeding them raw without breaking the bank. Times are tough right now as we all are experiencing. I have thought about just grinding my own meat bought from the grocery store or maybe a butcher, but not sure how much a bone and organ meat to incorporate. Not sure if I can stomach grinding it myself, lol but if it comes out cheaper for me to do it that way I guess I will have to force myself to do it to keep my cats eating the best food possible for them. They were rescues and I really would like to give them the best Nutrition I can possibly afford which isn’t much right now but I’m gonna do my best. Any information or direction or instruction would be greatly appreciate it and again thank you for the instruction that you did give really appreciate it and I have subscribed and I’m looking forward to learning more. God bless!
Omg...appa..is going to be my future 2nd ferret name
If I go on vacation and can’t bring my ferret, what do I do with my ferret?
Can someone please tell me the healthiest option of dry ferret food for an adult, not dehydrated, not super expensive, and not raw?
i want a ferret. which is why i watch her channel. but i don’t feed raw diet for my dogs. i just give them dry food and some times i give them chicken scraps mixed with their food when i’m cooking chicken. i’m i doing thing wrong or right?
What can I do to make them eat a raw diet my ferret rosey refuses to try anything I’ve been trying to find a good diet to put him on :(
Grat video but i have a question, can i let my free roam while am at school if my house is fully ferret proofed. And if i get 1 ferret will it be okay if i get another one a month later. I really need help
Kenan Bergal You can totally let your ferret free roam while your at school, just put away dangerous toys that can be a choking hazard. You will need 2 ferrets are the same time because if you only get one ferret that ferret can become stressed, have separation anxiety, and be depressed. I would say before getting your first ferret just wait the one more month so you can have both ferrets happy and healthy! :)
Carlos M great thanks for the help but my mom says get 1 ferret for now to see if im responsible enough then i can get 2 Thats why
Remember they're a huge commitment and very high maintenance. It's not all just play and cuddles
@@kenanbergal6767 really it should be two or nothing... your mom is inexperienced about ferrets... they are incredibly social animals and need someone of their own species to bond and play with... no matter how much attention you give a ferret it can never match what they get from their own kind. Two ferrets isn't really more work than one ferret and it will go a long way in keeping the ferrets happy and healthy... every day when we see our two ferrets playing with each other we always mention "can you imagine how sad it is that some ferrets never have another ferret to play with?
It really should be two or none at all... if your mom insists on the bad advice of only one ferret, than just wait till you're an adult and get two ferrets... I would never wish the sadness of living alone on any ferret. As strongly as this channel recommends a raw diet, I feel just as strongly that ferrets in a home should never be less than two.
Eviolus - yes i know ive been researching for about 2 months now im fully committed i know everything from the perfect cage setup to how long you have to play with them
my ferret pays no attention to raw :( i really want him on raw i do know how dangerous it is but he just don’t wanna eat anything raw i give him it makes me so upset:( how do i try and switch him?🙁
what kind of food should i order on "my pet carnivore"?
