What is your ferrets' favorite meat or prey?

[animalsgetrevenge]

What are each of your ferrets' favorite meat or preys? What do they refuse to eat?

Mine haven't tried very much variety yet but...

Didjeridu thinks PORK is candy.
Ramona likes chicken and beef.
Ernie only likes his food after I have chewed it up and then spit it into his mouth like a mama bird... or at least that is what he would LIKE me to do!!! That baby. He will eat anything as long as it is cut up so small he doesn't even know he is eating it.


What do yours like?

My ferrets LOVE quail. Their favorite meat is probably pork.

My cat loves quail and chicks, and her favorite meat is beef.

Hands down my ferrets prefer whole prey over raw, every time

My guys absolutely adore...gibblets...anyones Turkey, chicken they don't care. The next would be quail, then rabbit...from there each one of the furbabies enjoys different favourite meats.

Far and away the absolute favorite among my group, to the point I call it ferret crack, is day old quail. It must have the sweetest meat. LOL. They will do just about anything to get a day old quail.

Second favorite is day old chicks. Again, it must be sweet and they love licking up the yolk. :-)

Because those two items are the least nutritionally balanced, I only give them as treats. The rest of their diet is various ages of mice and rats and older quail, but most of the time it's chicken frankenprey.

Pork chunks. Far and away, pork chunks. This stuff is gone so fast. No leftovers at all
