That's a pretty broad statement there, ccoryjohnn, and largely incorrect. The bones are not the danger to animals, it's our human tendency to mess with nature that poses the danger. -Raw- bones are perfectly fine for carnivorous animals, including cats, dogs, and ferrets. -Cooked- chicken bones are not safe, because the cooking causes the bones to splinter when chewed. That's why you never see a lion roasting a bird over a campfire.

That's interesting. I never thought of it that way but I suppose that would make sense.

I used to feed my Rats chicken bones when I kept Rats, but have never ventured to give them to my mice because I'm vegetarian now, so don't have any to give.
