The best food ingredient list for you Ferrets to live long and happy lives

This is the best food for your ferrets. It has the best ratio of fat and protein, and contains more meat than other products. Ferrets are obligatory Carnivors. This food over the long run is the healthiest kibble you can feed your fuzz. It does NOT contain pea flour (which causes organ failure and stones) it also does NOT contain cane molasses or sugar which will give your ferret insulinoma.

Best Ferret Kibble, Period.

Outstanding nutrition for ferrets, and they love it to boot! We started mixing this in with their old (Marshall's) kibble, along with two varieties of high-quality cat food (EVO and Petcurean). This new mix of higher quality food is so good that both girls started picking out the new kibble and ignoring the old kibble. So much for mixing it with the old food and introducing it slowly! Since we transitioned them to this healthier diet, they've both seen much improvement over when we got them at the pet store, showing healthy growth (both in weight, and hair and nails). This is hands-down the best kibble you can provide to your ferret, and apparently it's delicious!

Best Ferret Food

I adopted a ferret a few months ago and wanted only the best for her. After studying all the food I could find, I'm glad I bought this one. She loves it. I switched her within a week of adopting. We do not want any digestive problems coming up when it can help be avoided by feeding the correct food. My ferret listens for when I get her feed bucket to refill her bowl. She almost jumps out of her cage to get her food. She loves it.

One of the best kibbles you can feed your ferret

I recently adopted a ferret and had her on Marshall's kibble for the first week as it was the only kibble I had access to in retail stores near me, but I knew I wanted her on the healthiest kibble I could get as she wasn't in the greatest shape and was underweight when I took her in. I did some research and this product was consistently recommended, so I bought it. She wasn't very keen on her new food for the first few days but she soon adjusted to it and now eats it without any fuss. My cat seems to be jealous of this kibble and occasionally tries reaching through the cage to steal some for herself. A few days ago I took my ferret to get microchipped and vaccinated, and she got a clean bill of health from her check-up and was up to a healthy weight. Also, it could just be me getting used to the smell, but it seems like her waste has a much less offensive odor since I switched her diet.

Best food short of RAW diet!

Our daughter is nine years old, going on sixteen. She decided that she wanted a ferret and began a very well organized campaign to convince my wife and I to let her have a ferret. She did tons of research, and used psychological tricks, played us against one another and several other very well planned out tactics to trick us into getting her not one, but two ferrets. (One ferret would be lonely and potentially more destructive during the day when she was at school - two ferrets would have each other for company.) One thing she did that was commendable was the vast amount of research that she did before we got the ferrets. I am a research kind of guy, and spent a lot of time finding just the right food for our dog. So she copied my techniques and did a great deal of research on the proper food. She learned that the ideal diet for a grown ferret is live baby chicks or live baby mice. This seemed impractical for our family, so we set out to find a better alternative. Enter the Wysong Ferret Epigen 90 Digestive Support - Dry Ferret Food. It appears to be the next closest thing the RAW Diet, while still giving them the proper nutrients that an obligate carnivore needs. Also, there has been some discussion over the richening of the "plain" Epigen 90 food, so the Digestive Support seems to be the better choice of the two. Our ferrets love it, and are growing and healthy and refuse most other (ferret) treats or scrambled eggs or other approved treats. They really like this food and it is working well for them. I recommend it highly.

Fantastic product - GREAT!!

Fantastic product. My son has a ferret and fed it Marshall Premium. The ferret seemed to be doing ok, but I was not pleased with the very strong odor. Did some research and decided to give Wysong a try. What a tremendous difference!!!! Ferret liked the food and transition to 100% Wysong took less than 3 days. The foul odor is gone. The ferret smells clean, and the litter box is nowhere near as offensive - I would even venture that "poop odor" is minimal. As for nutrition - much better potein perentage and ingredients. If you havent, try this product. Great!!

the safest option that is least likely to cause dangerous problems like bladder stones

I rescue ferrets in California where they are illegal. This is, in my opinion after getting more than 100 ferrets to swap diets to this food, the safest option that is least likely to cause dangerous problems like bladder stones. I tremendously respect Wysong's dedication to ferrets and appreciate being able to feed animals I care about a food which won't harm them, like what happened with Zupreem in 2015.

Great for CATS!

Finally, a kibble my cats like & it doesn't poison them w ridiculous vegetables additives. Cats are hyper/strick carnivores, like ferrets - plant compounds make them sick [via complex carbohydrates, salicilates & lectins]. Yes, it does have corn which is safer for feline physiology than all the other "grain free" cat foods junk that have made my cats SICK. Most of those vegetable additives: rice, tapioca, potatoes, alfalfa, chia seeds, chick peas, pea proteins, guar gum, vegetable oils, etc - either block the uptake of taurine or outright irritate &/or poison the feline digestive system. Also, it has more taurine than any kibble or canned I could find. My older kitty (15yo) who was on death's doorstep, despite everything that I've tried, is now gaining weight, acting like her younger kitty self, back to being the Queen of our little 4 kitty colony. My 9 yr old has stopped cleaning herself incessantly, to the point of bald spots and resumed her friendly social self. These are cats that go outside & hunt mice so they did have access to a normal feline diet but the plant toxins limited the uptake of taurine. One more aside, I did start adding taurine (human supplement, 1/2 gram per can) to some very carefully chosen canned cat food [Hounds & Gatos, Zupreem, First Mate - watch out for the stupid plant fillers & vegetable oils] which is the other important variable.

Ferret loves it.

Tried to switch my ferret slowly from Marshall's food to this one. He refused to eat the Marshall's after he had a taste of this stuff. So much for slowly transitioning.

Great food

I switched our clowns to this a few months ago after feeding them a cheater brand for a few years. What a difference! Their coats are so thick and fluffy and they’re all fat and healthy. Our one guy, who is now 5, looked so skinny and we thought he was coming to the end of his days. But now he’s just gorgeous. What a relief- he’s a very valued member of the household. Definitely worth the few extra $ a month.
