Frequently Asked Questions

Is Alpha Ferret Feast suitable for kits (baby ferrets)?

Yes — Alpha Ferret Feast is suitable for all life stages including kits. When introducing to kits, moisten the nuggets with warm water until soft and allow to cool before feeding. Remove any uneaten moistened food after a few hours and replace with fresh. Gradually introduce kits to dry food after 5–6 weeks as they develop.

Why do ferrets need such high protein in their diet?

Ferrets are obligate carnivores — their digestive systems are designed to process animal protein efficiently and they have very little ability to digest plant-based carbohydrates. The 36% protein in Alpha Ferret Feast, derived from poultry and fish meal, closely mirrors the natural ferret diet and supports lean muscle, energy, and overall vitality.

What is taurine and why is it important for ferrets?

Taurine is an essential amino acid that ferrets cannot produce in sufficient quantities on their own. It plays a critical role in heart function, eye health, and immune support. Alpha Ferret Feast contains 500mg/kg of taurine — an important inclusion that many cheaper ferret foods omit entirely.

How does the crunchy nugget support dental health?

The extruded crunchy nugget format helps mechanically clean your ferret's teeth as they chew, reducing plaque and tartar build-up. This is particularly beneficial for ferrets, who are prone to dental disease, and is one of the advantages of a complete dry food over wet or raw diets.

How long will a 10kg bag last?

For a single ferret eating approximately 50–80g per day, a 10kg bag will last around 4–6 months. For multi-ferret households — groups of 3–5 ferrets — expect the bag to last 4–8 weeks depending on activity levels and group size. The 10kg size offers outstanding value for dedicated ferret owners or those with larger groups.
