SheepChaser 8,089 Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 Here’s a question for you ? If feeding just carcasses, rather than a balanced raw feed concoction, would you feed a biscuit as well and if so, how often ? Mine usually get a couple days a week dry food and the rest of the time through the winter just flesh as it comes. 2 Quote Link to post

That’s what I do.. probably carcass fed 5 days a week… and a decent dry complete biscuit the other 2 days. 2 Quote Link to post
Elchapo 3,167 Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 Always fed bit of a mixed realy but always contained a decent dry mix biscuit with , chicken mince beef mince tripe chunks/mince pheasant rabbit works well for me and in summer find dogs dont eat as much so tend to feed less flesh as they leave it and it gets fly blown Quote Link to post

Or you still could just say you've found something in the bag. Get a few biscuits out an soak them let them go mouldy then put them back in the sack jobs a good en 50 notes back When I worked at place that made chudleys people was always sending bags back in because they found Stanley knife blades and nuts and bolts and company would send them refund and several bags of feed but then clocked onto the blade scam and started ingraving dh on blades but they karnt disprove nuts and bolts and metal shavings as bits of metal everywhere in production buildings, most the feed they made was over priced rubbish but like you say fools and there money 2 Quote Link to post

I remember some of these old time dogs as a kid, they hardly ever got sick and lived to a ripe old age. I remember watching me dad make a mash up in a big pot ,all kinds would go in it and he'd cook it up and the dogs and the game fowl was fed it couple times a week ,other times dogs just got few bones and table scraps but he'd go down slaughter house get barrow load of sheep heads every two weeks and dogs done well on it ,not remember any passing away at young age or even going vets , 3 Quote Link to post
