How do you feed a newborn weasel?
Offer small amounts of whole mouse purée or chopped whole mice supplemented with feline commercial raw (or moist high-quality kitten) in the cage at all times, changing out with each formula feeding.
Can you keep a wild weasel?
Weasels, ferrets, and the other Mustelidae members are all illegal to own in the states of California and Hawaii.
What do weasels hate?
Weasels have an excellent sense of smell which they use primarily to find food. While the only proven scent effective against weasels is predator urine, things like mint, hot peppers, citronella, and eucalyptus have a strong enough smell to make a weasel look for alternative areas and stay away.
What do you feed baby weasels?
Small, dead mice should certainly be offered to young baby weasels (and young fox pups), but only as an enrichment, a prey-identification tool, not as a diet. When raised in captivity, animals simply do not have access to the dirt, insects, minerals, and grasses that they do in the wild.
