Even if you abhor kibble, please scroll down to read the "INTERESTING QUOTES FROM WYSONG". I give them credit for being honest
Also, not everyone can provide a 100% raw diet 100% of the time for various different reasons. Thus, It's good to be aware of new kibble technology.
Early this year, Wysong will be rolling out Epigen90, a starch-free kibble that's 90% meat-sourced protein.
WARNING:
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE EPIGEN PRODUCT LINE DOES NOT CONTAIN SUFFICIENT FAT CONTENT TO SERVE AS A SOLE FOOD SOURCE FOR FERRETS!!!! Epigen contain 11% fat. Ferrets require 20-30% fat in their diet, so additional animal-based fat should be added to the ferret diet when feeding Epigen.
Epigen 90™ Ingredients*: Organic Chicken, Chicken Meal, Chicken Fat (preserved with mixed Tocopherols as a source of Vitamin E), Chicken Giblets, Gelatin (source of collagen and proteoglycans), Apple (source of soluble fiber), Beet Pulp (source of prebiotics), Plums (antioxidant source), Inulin (prebiotic), Blueberries (antioxidant source), Tomato (source of lutein), Taurine (amino acid), Oregano Extract (antioxidant source), Sage Extract (antioxidant source), Rosemary Extract (antioxidant source), Probiotic Microorganisms (Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus faecium, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactococcus lactis, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus lactis), Ascorbic Acid, Zinc Proteinate, Iron Proteinate, Vitamin E Supplement, Niacin Supplement, Manganese Proteinate, Calcium Pantothenate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Copper Proteinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Riboflavin Supplement, Vitamin A Acetate, Folic Acid, Biotin, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Vitamin D3 Supplement.
(*Coming early 2011. Ingredients list not yet final. Epigen 90™ will be 90% meat and organs, and as with the other Epigen™ varieties, Starch Free™.)

INTERESTING QUOTES FROM WYSONG:
-------------------------------------------------
I like the way Wysong promotes its kibble through the following quotes:
"In truth, kibble marks the greatest misstep in the history of animal nutrition....
....Epigen 90™ is an honest attempt at just that -- righting, as much as possible, the wrong. Fitting the square peg (kibble) in the round hole (biologically appropriate nutrition). With Epigen 90™ we've accomplished this to the greatest extent possible.
Is it perfect? No. Are there inherent flaws with kibble that simply cannot be overcome? Yes."
