## Description

Wysong Epigen varieties represent the first important kibble pet food innovation in almost 60 years and moves conventional dry extruded pet foods much closer to the high protein meat-based, starchless foods carnivores are genetically designed for. With that, they are given greater opportunity to enjoy their full natural health.

Review: The best dry food for ferrets - Some “ferret” kibble on the market is garbage, pure and simple. *cough* marshall *cough* Ferrets are obligate carnivores with short digestive tracts. Your ferret should NOT eat carbs or pea protein. This is the only dry food I feet my ferrets. But it should not be the ONLY food you feed your ferrets. Ferret teeth are designed for shredding meat. Gnawing on hard kibble is not healthy for ferrets. Here’s what I’ve done for years- get warm water. Mix in 2 spoons of Dook Soup from Pampered Ferret (freeze dried raw, 98% meat.) Put this kibble in the warm water so it softens. Note- other ferret kibble will turn to mush because of the high carb content (again, not healthy for your ferrets!) This kibble simply softens, making it easier for your ferrets to eat. I then add Stella & Chewys raw dinner morsels (frozen), about 5 nuggets for 2 ferrets. Let sit for 10 minutes. Stir together. Top with a pinch of salmon oil. Serve. Ferrets imprint on their food. You need to make sure you introduce your ferrets to a variety of raw meats prior to 6 months of age. For kits, I’ll take their treats (utilize treats for potty training), crumble some over their food, and serve so they get used to the taste and associate it with food. Note- a lot of “ferret treats” are garbage too. Get freeze dried RAW chicken, liver, minnows. Your ferret never needs carbs, sugar (which is a carb), veggies, etc in their treats. I specifically get the starch free epigen due to limited ingredients and probiotics. If you bought your ferret from a chain pet store, it’s probably a Marshall ferret. I would switch them over quickly to this kibble and raw food. You want to do this while they are kits. Once their digestive system gets used to the food, you’ll have less poop as more of it is fully utilized by their bodies. At first they may have loose stool, more stool, for this I recommend “Poopin Pumpkin” to bulk up their stools. I use it every 3 weeks or so to prevent intestinal blockages as well, which ferrets are prone to, and those are very expensive to fix. My ferrets readily accepted the kibble and raw food. As for the treats, it’s a work in progress. These ferrets grew up in a pet mill on a poor diet. Patience is key. The price is worth it 10x over. A poor diet and stress can cut your ferret’s life short. Remember, ferrets are expensive animals. Forget the initial $400 per ferret. You need yearly vet exams, then biannual once they hit age 3. You need to invest in proper food and a LARGE cage. Enrichment. Emergencies. Diet is the foundation of health.
Review: Good Quality Food - I order this food for one of my ferrets. The other ferret does not typically enjoy it but my female chows down on this. I did some research before purchasing this food for them and it seemed this was one of the healthier choices. I don't feed them this food alone; I mix it with the marshal ferret food as well as that is the one my male likes. I also feed them Stella & chewy FDR twice a day. I recommend mixing this with other food as I heard this can cause loose stool in ferrets as the ingredients are potent. I ordered this on June 12th and it was delivered by June 17th (5 days), not bad for desertcart nowadays. This is good quality food which I try to feed my ferrets at all times.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you ship to the U.K.?**
A: We are not able to ship to the UK via Amazon at this time.

**Q: Did anybodys ferrets become less active for long after using this food?**
A: I stopped using this particular wysong epigen 90 since they changed the formula a yr or so ago. My ferret had diarrhea and it cost me numerous expensive veterinarian bills.  I even introduced it slowly mixed with other foods knowing they had changed the recipe.  After taking it away and fasting my ferret for a day, feeding probiotics and prescription soft food, he returned to normal.   Other wysong foods are fine like epigen 90 digestive support.

**Q: How long does it take one ferret to eat a 5lb bag?**
A: Good morning Emily, Thank you for your question. Since ferrets should have fresh food and water available at all times, it would depend on how much your individual ferret eats to determine how long a bag would last. For your reference, there are approximately 17 cups of food in the 5 lb. bags.Thank you, Wysong

**Q: Which food is better this one, or the ferret epigen 90 digestive support?**
A: neither. this brand gave both my ferrets horrible and dangerous diarrhea. Many of the other reviewers had a similar issue
