Bob’s Egg-Drop Chicken Soup for Ferrets
From Bob Church, Missouri | 
|
Ingredients
1/4 pound chicken parts, diced small
1 low-salt bullion cube dissolved in just enough water to dissolve it (sort of like a paste)
2 – 3 eggs
Water Directions
Add chicken to the bullion paste. Cook chicken in a hot wok/skillet until done. Put cooked chicken in a bowl, add eggs, and whip. In a small saucepan, boil approximately 1 inch of water. Put chicken and egg mixture into boiling water. Allow to cool. Cauliflower loved it! He lapped it up happily. Bob’s Tip — The Foot Dip
Ferrets imprint on their food when they are very young and often are reluctant to try new foods when they are older. This can really cause problems when you are trying to give them something that is good for them which they are not accustomed to. Bob suggests that you try dipping their paws in the gravy. Ferrets do not like to have dirty paws, and they will lick the food off in order to clean their paws. Eventually this can help them get used to the flavor so that they can learn to enjoy it. |
NOTE: If your ferret has a long-term illness such as insulinoma, avoid sugary or high-carbohydrate treats. Stick to meat-based foods only. If you have any concerns about giving your ferret a particular treat, check with your veterinarian.
