DiStuRBeD 0 Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 i feed a good quality biscuit, kangaroo meat, sheep offcuts, feral goat, rabbit they get the meat rotated depending on what i have at the time, mostly however it is either roo meat or sheep flap, i find sheep flap helps them put on weight roo meat will get them looking really good. all u's have to do is import a couple hundred roos to the UK and u'll be sweet :11: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rainmaker 7 Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 I always feed my dogs (and ferrets, snakes and lizards) a natural diet. I'm sure this came up in another thread recently? LOL Anyroad, they get fresh whole fish (sardines, mackerel etc) with guts and all, rabbits, squirrels, feather, stillborn lambs/pigs/calves, raw meaty bones like chicken wings, necks, whole chickens (three large oven ready hens with giblets for a fiver), rib racks with meat... and so on and so forth. They really like pigs' feet (including trotters and skin) and pig skin too. My local butcher gives me a bin bag full of chicken frames (with meat and organs), rib racks, backs, necks, etc etc for a quid a bag - good stuff They all get plenty of green tripe as well, it's a brilliant feed imho. Just redoing my site with some raw food info if anyone's interested - nowhere near done yet but there's something to read if you're bored LOL Click Here Cheers, Lee Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The only bit on the tin that ISNT correct is the part where it says "complete and balanced" :11: As one of the bigwigs from one of the world's biggest pet food manufacturers once said...

Guest tommo Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 dont you get tape worm feeding green tripe and raw rabbits im always having to worm my dogs after they eat raw rabbits and tripe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stabs 3 Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 There's no harm in worming them. I can also say my dogs love pigs feet...they last for ages with the bulldogs, well compared to the rest anyway I get black binbags full to the top of crap from the butchers every saturday and often the gear is good enough for me to eat. It costs nowt and all you've got to do is ask. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest reload Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 dont you get tape worm feeding green tripe and raw rabbits im always having to worm my dogs after they eat raw rabbits and tripe <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Worm regular To be honest i dont worm that much as i find it scours the dog, worm every three months over the winter as the dogs getting more wild game. You should get no problems from rabbits if its been frozen for 3 weeks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rainmaker 7 Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 I just joined a meat cash and carry "oop North" and went in for a mooch yesterday when my membership card arrived. 10KG chicken wings for under a tenner, and 25lbs of whole chicken backs (basically a chicken quarter with plenty of meat, fat, skin etc on the bone) for only £3 a box! Those backs are excellent, and at £3 for 25lbs we're talking what? *quickly counts on fingers... lol*... That's 12p per pound for great quality human grade meat from a butchers' I went to speak to the head butcher (it's a big warehouse cash and carry jobby) and wondered how to approach him about what raw feeding's all about. I needn't have worried, as soon as I mentioned I had a small bobbery pack he went "Ahhh you'll be wanting boxes of chicken backs with plenty of meat on them eh?" Apparently, I'm not their first raw feeding customer - my dogs now share a supplier with Schmichael from Corrie :11: They crate over 100s of lbs of backs for him apparently - always said that dog looked fit for a Dane Anyroad, just rambling about me good luck LOL Off to Tabley Hall show now.
