Review: Ferrets love it! - My ferrets really like this food, they’re very hesitant to try new foods but took a liking to this immediately, their coats look great, teeth are in good health and a trusted brand I’ve used for my rats and reptiles in the past.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Ferrets are obligate carnivores and are not supposed to eat grains. Why is brown rice the second ingredient?**
A: I don't know why it has brown rice in it, but I give my ferrets a mixture of four different foods (two of them the high-end expensive stuff), small handfuls of each.  They're healthy and playful.  If I thought for a second any food was messing with them, I'd discontinue it.  As long as this works for them, it works for me.

**Q: Why all the bha? bha is known to cause cancer in small animals. this is death in a bag.**
A: My ferrets didn't do well on it. Lost weight and one ferret started looking like hairless rat. Terrible

**Q: What are the ingredients? They arent posted anywhere on this page.**
A: ill be home in 2 hours, ill get you the ingredients.
