Before you say tape and felt and hot glue
1.tape impossible to cover every crack so you get mold and a destroyed mask no matter what you do

2. If the water gets under the felt it molds

3. Hot glue melts in water

The fabric is lycra btw

Every time I try and find info on my future ferrets diet I'm told I need to feed 75% muscle meat 10% bone 10% heart and 5% liver and secreting organ but I'm never told what animals liver what muscle meat and what heart and what secreting organ to feed it's confusing my food list in images and my unfinished plan below

Bone in 10%

Anything with bone actually in the product such as

Turkey/chicken wings
Turkey/chicken Necks
Chicken Feet
Whole cuts with bones in (thigh and drumsticks)

Muscle meat 75%
Anything without bone such as no bone mince

Chicken/turkey Mince
Deboned cuts of meat (like thigh and drumsticks)
Any animal Tongue
Chicken or any animal Gizzards
Any animal Lungs
Any animal Trachea
Any animal Tripe

Heart 10%

Chicken/turkey/pig heart Heart

Liver 5%

Chicken/turkey/rabbit Liver

Secreting organ 5%

Rabbit Kidney
Any animal Pancreas
Any animal Brain
Any animal Spleen

1.As for what animals you should feed, you’ve got enough on your list to work out what you want to feed that day as long as in a week they have 3 different animals, for example if your bone in is all turkey and all your liver comes from chicken and your heart is from a pig that constitutes the 3 animal variety. If you wanted to you could make every type of meat a different animal.

2.as long as it sticks to the frakenprey menu and has a minimum of 3 different animal proteins you’re all good it varies heavily, on age of the the ferret, the gender and time of year. Typically ferrets eat 10% of their body weight. With kits eating 10-20% of their body weight You’ll have to weigh your ferret to get an idea on how much they weigh and then you can plan accordingly.

3.Feed the correct proportion and ratios
Feed adult ferrets 10 % of their current or target body weight. You’ll want to increase this to 13% in the winter. It’s worth noting that ferrets are self-regulating animals and will often eat just what they need anyways

4.If you’re feeding raw to a kit, feed up to 20% of their current body weight and free feed – meaning leave the quantity of food down for 12 hours so they can feed as they please

Kits Monday
Breakfast
turkey necks
Figure out 10% of the kits body weight and feed his that of bone

chicken mince no bone
Figure out 75 % of the kits body weight and feed him that of muscle meat

turkey heart
Find out 10% of the kits body weight and feed him that of heart

turkey and chicken liver
Find out 5% of the kits body weight and feed him that of of secreting organ add the rest later

This is my plan please rate it and update it if you like tell me If its bad idk

• Egg yolk: Use yolk only, no egg white; shift days if they fall on lamb/turkey/extras days
📌 What to do when gizzards run out

✅ What to do when they run out
• Just replace the gizzard amount with plain chicken or turkey mince — keep the exact same total weight and 80/10/5/5 ratio.
• Your plan stays perfectly balanced and complete without them — gizzards are just a nice extra protein source, not essential nutrition.
• All other parts (mince, necks, hearts, livers, lamb, extras) stay exactly the same — no other changes needed at all.

📌 Example swap
If a meal uses 4g gizzard + 40g mince, just make it 44g mince instead — that’s it!
