my ferrets would not eat.
By Larry on Nov 7, 2020
I tried to introduce a new brand of food to my ferrets but they didn't want to eat it. I would recommend not to buy a big bag of food if its new. Buy a small bag.

He's not sure just yet
By Lisa on Apr 15, 2020
Our 8 year old ferret Teddy, lost his 10 year old big brother this week. They've been on another brand their whole lives, & have been very resistant to any changes. They won't even take ferret treats. Teddy is eating this now because their regular food was out of stock when I ordered. He doesn't love it, & keeps flipping the food bowl.

merry says yucky
By 19merryferrer on Apr 6, 2020
My ferret wouldn’t eat this food. I even tried mixing it with another type. And she would eat the food I mixed it with and leave the mazuri food in her bowl. I couldn’t fool her. She would just let it sit and waste.

Vet recommended
By Amanda on Mar 13, 2020
This is one of the foods recommended by our vet. Our little ones love it! They have been eating this same food for years. We have never had any issues and my little ones prefer it over other foods!

To much ASH!
By Tazmom on Feb 24, 2020
Ash is not a good thing in pet food. It is a filler that causes urinary blockages that often require surgery to correct in cats and dogs. Ferrets plumbing is even smaller and blockages can happen much more easily. 7.5% ash is extremely high!

What good is ferret food
By Scooby on Jun 9, 2019
I had to find a different ferret food for Scooby. I knew he needed the best food I could find. So, I started reading labels and the ingredients. I have found that not all ferret foods are perfect but Mazuni comes close.
