"Of course my 6 fur noodles ferrets love the tasty treat really great price an a healthy snack to show my noodles some love ! Thanks chewy"

— Sebastian

"Why did they change these sticks? Was it to go to cheaper ingredients? My ferrets won't touch them. I wonder if they even tested these on ferrets. Hoping this is only a trial and they go back to the original sticks soon. Because these are not worth buying ever again. I usually buy 20+ bags every 3 m..."
