If you really want to feed a natural diet you need to feed whole carcasses. Mice and baby chicks work well with ferrets. If you're just wanting to feed meat odds are you ferrets are going to be defecient in some vitamins/minerals. You should really take some time to learn about the nutritional requirements of ferrets before you make any drastic changes in their diets. By all means, add as much meat as you can get them to eat but don't forget for their diet to be balanced they need organ meats, bones, fur/feathers, etc.
