Diet:
Ferrets like to eat whole small prey such as rodents. Ferrets will also eat birds, prairie dogs, bunnies and sometimes frog or road kill. They can eat vegetables but are mostly carnivores. As a treat, ferrets usually like to eat eggs which they need to steal from chickens, geese etc. If you have a ferret as a pet then you should get a hook on food bowl to hook on to your cage. You should give your ferret small rodents, ferret food or cat food. The food needs to be out 24/7 because ferrets tend to get hungry a lot and you should never let the food go down less than half way.
