DUCK SOUP (FOR FERRETS)



Duck Soup (For Ferrets) image

When my ferrets get sick or are recovering from surgery, I use this "formula" to get them back on their little feet.

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.

  • Put all ingredients in a blender on liquify until everything is mixed thoroughly. Freeze in an ice cube tray. Once frozen, every three hours heat one up in the microwave to room temperature, test with your finger. It might take a few tries, but don't be discouraged. They will like it eventually. Even if you have to put a little on your finger til they lick it off.

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 20m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 eggs
1 chicken leg
3 cups water

Steps:

  • Put water in a small pot. Set the stove to a medium low temperature. When water starts to boil, add raw drumstick to water, and let boil for 10 minutes.
  • While drumstick is boiling, take your eggs and two bowls, and separate the yolk, and the egg white. Ferrets should not eat egg white, because if ingested, this can result in hair loss.
  • After chicken is done boiling, take it out and let it sit to cool. Make sure not to turn your stove off yet. Your water should have some fatty oils floating on the surface. Now, take your egg yolks and add them to the water. Stir them around. You should have a goopy sort of substance floating around.
  • After your chicken is done cooling, cut it into small strips big enough for your ferret to chew, because you don't want them to inhale the soup. Add the strips to the soup, and mix around.
  • Turn off stove, and let the soup sit for about 5 minutes. Divide equally for your ferret(s) to enjoy.
  • Do not give this to your ferrets frequently. Remember this is a treat, not a meal, and if you give this to your pets regularly, it can make them sick. I recommend giving it to them when they are ill, or after they get out of surgery. If you want to give this as a treat, then I recommend giving it to them, once every 1-2 months.

DUCK SOUP



Duck Soup image

This is Russell's speciality. This soup is easy to make, though it takes a bit of planning. It is a complete and filling meal made the way we do. The original recipe came from an Ian Parmenter cookbook, but I doubt he'd recognise his recipe now! Prep and cooking time are just a guess-and don't include overnight refrigeration of the stock or marinated meat-sorry about that! I like to add snow peas or asparagus to this sometimes too.

1 whole star anise
1 teaspoon szechwan pepper, lightly crushed
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon mirin
1 garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 whole star anise
1/2 teaspoon szechwan pepper, lightly crushed
3 -4 green onions, finely sliced

  • For the duck portions: remove from marinade, and cook in a hot oven (about 200c) for about 20 minutes for the breasts, and about 30 minutes for the legs.
  • You want the meat to be pink and juicy still, and the skin crispy.

  • Reduce heat, and add remaining soup ingredients including both lots of reserved duck meat.
