Categories     < 15 Mins

Time 10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (8 ounce) can ready-to-use infant formula (High Protein kind) or 1 (8 ounce) can vanilla ensure (High Protein kind)
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup cat food or 1/2 cup ferret food, dry
1/2 cup powdered milk

Steps:

  • Soak dry food in 1/2 cup water and soften it completely.
  • When dry food is soft, mash with a fork and mix all ingredients in a 2 quart jar and shake thouroughly. Sometimes I microwave it to the temperature of baby formula.
  • Serve about 4 fluid ounces at a time twice daily for maintenance.
  • If your little guys are eating too much and you feel they are getting fat, you can increase the amount of water. I have tried increasing the amount of dry food, but if it gets too thick some of them won't eat it.
  • This formula also freezes well as the Sustacal must be used within 48 hours if left only in the fridge.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality duck meat: Opt for fresh or frozen duck meat that is free from any signs of spoilage or freezer burn. Look for meat that is a deep red color and has a firm texture.
  • Remove the duck's skin and fat: Before cooking the duck, remove the skin and excess fat to reduce the soup's overall fat content. This will also make the soup easier to digest for ferrets.
  • Simmer the duck meat slowly: To ensure that the duck meat is cooked thoroughly and tender, simmer it over low heat for at least 1-2 hours. This will also allow the flavors to develop and deepen.
  • Add vegetables and herbs: To enhance the flavor of the soup, add a variety of vegetables and herbs such as carrots, celery, onions, garlic, parsley, and thyme. These ingredients will provide essential nutrients and antioxidants to the soup.
  • Use a ferret-safe broth: When making the soup, use a ferret-safe broth such as chicken or beef broth. Avoid using broths that contain onions, garlic, or other ingredients that are toxic to ferrets.

Conclusion:

Duck soup is a nutritious and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed by ferrets of all ages. By following these tips and using ferret-safe ingredients, you can prepare a delicious and healthy soup that your ferret will love. Remember to introduce the soup gradually to your ferret's diet and monitor them closely for any signs of digestive upset. With proper preparation and moderation, duck soup can be a healthy and enjoyable treat for your furry friend.
