i wanted a ferret, might still get one one day. (i would rather have a weasel tho if possible b/c it's smaller.) the thing i didn't like that i learned about ferrets is that u need to feed them mice/rodents! i know, i know snakes eat mice too but i'm afraid a ferret would scurry away to hide somewhere around the house to eat the mice. i'm afraid of the mess it will make or leave a partially eaten rodent somewhere that i would not be able to find.
and omg Chipmunks1

I've never fed them mice/rodents. They eat kibble basically. It's designed for ferrets so it's super high in protein and has no grain or corn.
They occasionally get some "duck soup" as a treat. That's basically just a protein packed powder that you mix with water to make a "soup".
I've tried giving them chicken beef, they have no interest.
