This is my favorite all around ferret duck soup recipe. It makes enough for about 2-3 ice trays, per the recipe. I feed my ferret 1-2 cubes twice a day. This recipe will last my one ferret about 1.5 weeks. Will have to change recipe accordingly for more ferrets.
Ingredients for Ferret Duck Soup:
1 cup dry high quality ferret food.
1 quarter chicken fully cooked and deboned.
2 cups water used from boiling the chicken.
2 hard boiled eggs (leave shells on and include for extra calcium).
10 Papaya tablets (aids in digestion).
1 Calcium Tablet 500mg.
1 tsp Ferretone or Linatone.
1 6 oz can Iams (or other HIGH quality food) Cat or Kitten food.
Add deboned chicken to blender with broth water, papaya tablets, calcium tablets, and blend on high until mixture is pulverized. Add dry food and continue blending until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients one at a time with the canned cat food being the last item. Each cube equals 1 serving. For ill ferrets, feed a minimum of 1 cube every 4-6 hours.
For ferrets on Lasix therapy or severely dehydrated ferrets – add 90 mg Potassium (1 tablet) For Adrenal ferrets – Add 200 IU of dry vitamin E (1 tablet).
