Im glad they had fun! While ferrets arent insectivores, they can still benefit from bugs now and then, not only from enrichment, but for diet as well. Bugs have a decent amount of protien and fat.
Did ya take any pics?

You can email me the pics if you want and I can post them on here. OR you can provide the link to the ferret.com thread, OR I can help you set up a photobucket account (it takes the same amount of time as setting up an email account. Its quite simple ) I like the idea of not offering them this enrichment everyday. Rotating enrichments is a great way to prevent your ferret from getting bored and extend the life of your enrichment activities.
