De weighs 1lb 2oz. I am currently feeding her a raw soupie in addition to her kibble. She doesnt want to eat kibble anymore lol, just the soupie. She likes to eat from the syringe. How many ccs/mls of food should a ferret of her weight be consuming each day? Anyone know? I want to be sure and measure out the right amount of pureed raw for her each day (whether she eats it herself or via syringe). I am ordering some ground raw from hare today, I'll be added some extra ground organs to the meat/bone/organ mixtures. I also plan to buy some PP to supplement her diet. And once I purchase a food processor, she'll also be getting some pureed mouse mixed in with her (and samson's) ground raw. Mmmmmmm... yummy! Thanks in advance!

I would say, let her eat until she's full! When she gets her fill and walks away, she's done.

I really don't know. Lily is 2 pounds and eats about a ounce and a half a day, weezer is 3 pounds and eats about 2 and a half ounces. An ounce might be good to go by

My smallet jill weighs > 2 lbs in the summer. She eats 2-3 ounces of fresh raw and about 1/8 - 1/4 cup Archetypal I. Plus freeze-dried treats.
If your girl is older, she may need to be fed more than twice a day to maintain an optimal weight.
