Marshall Premium Ferret Diet (26-oz carton)

Ranging in size from 26 oz. through 35 lbs. our ferret diet has by far more meat based protein, unlike our competition. Keep in mind that ferrets are strict carnivores and require high amounts of meat protein (non-plant based protein). Our unique cooking process, coupled with the best ingredients, keep the nutrients intact. Marshall Premium Ferret Diet was developed by a team of veterinarians, nutritionists, and experts at Marshall Farms who have been raising ferrets for over 60 years. Results of their definitive testing show that Marshall Premium has proven again and again to be the best food available for ferrets. Feeding Instructions: Ferrets of all ages need to have Marshall Premium Ferret Diet and fresh water available at all times. It is important to sufficiently moisten the diet for young ferrets (6-11 weeks of age). Mix three parts warm fresh water to one part Marshall Premium Diet (3:1 ratio). Allow the mixture to sit 3-5 minutes. Add more Marshall Premium Ferret Diet or water until it reaches a wet oatmeal consistency. Keep some dry Marshall Premium Ferret Diet available at this age so your ferret will adjust to a completely dry diet by the time it is 12-13 weeks of age. Slowly, convert to dry food only.
