My ferrets love oxbow. I have one ferret who will not eat raw very often, so i am glad oxbow is such a great brand of dry food full of nutrients.

  • Ferret loves it
My ferret loves this! Transitioned him from marshalls to this after I adopted him and it was incredibly easy, he much prefers this and I appreciate the good ingredients. His stool has been healthy as well.

This seems to be the best healthiest option on the market, I've noticed my ferrets poop less and its more firm since I completely switched, ive tried every brand that is said to be superior & these ingredients and my ferrets poop seem to support the idea that this is the best of all the foods. It's also veterinarian recommended according to the brand. ... show more

I ordered this item because my ferret was not eating properly, she became lean. My first purchase of this item was quite delightful, but she enjoys it when it is freshly prepared.
