Freeze-dried raw is another easy way to feed your ferrets raw, if you feel intimidated by a true raw diet. All you need to do is add water. It provides most of the benefits of a full raw diet, except it doesn't naturally clean their teeth as well since there is nothing tough to chew on (they usually include ground bone, but those pieces are too small).
