Frozen raw and freeze-dried raw (FDR) are basically identical, except the way they're stored. FDR just needs to be hydrated by adding water, while frozen raw needs to be thawed.
These two types of wet raw foods are the healthiest diets you can feed your ferrets. They are more expensive up front and more effort, but will keep your ferrets much healthier and save you money and heart ache in the long run.
