Hi all, especially Rena, I'm on my second week working at Tailblazers and it's been going well. I've been so down on the pre-made mixes and ground stuff in the...
Hey Anika, Glad to hear your new job is going well:) About the premixes, although I wouldn't personally feed them (am a chef, so doing it myself was an easy...
Sure, I'll give it a try:) Maybe 6 to try out and see how they like it. thanks! Rena ... From: Lori Vickerman To: CalgaryRawFeeders@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
I've been thinking about calling for more myself. We're going out of town for the week, but if you haven't made arrangements by then I might get in on your...
Hmph, go figure. How strange that UFA is the most expensive! You're definitely right about it being an expensive thing to experiment with. So glad to hear...
I don't know about everyone else but I've been having a heck of a time getting tripe lately. I found a company that will sell me tripe "whole, uncut, in...
Hey Lori, How squeemish are you?:) I've worked with a lot of meat, and besides the first time I saw a boiled tongue peeled it's one of the few things that...
Where does everyone get their offal? I sorta just pick it up where I can (often from Lori's butcher), but lately I've been forced to go pay the ridiculous...
Hey Terry, I get my offal from various places, including some Asian markets in Forest Lawn who sell pig innards for ridiculously cheap prices. Forest Lawn...
Lori, I'm not squeamish AT ALL, but I don't know that I could repackage that much tripe. It's really smelly, and a wierd sort of smelly that I definitley...
Yeah I've been thinking that'd be pretty gross. If it's already cut up they charge 1.75$/lb if I buy 400 lbs. But still, I'm used to buying breeders blocks...
Lori, If your not in a hurry I could find out when my neighbors are butchering a steer again. I am sure you could get all the tripe for free. Ron Lori...
I'd definately pay 50 cents/lb to not have to cut it up. I'd be in for 100lb's if you go for it. Terry ... From: Lori Vickerman <vickermanlori@...> ...
Thanks Anika, so do you feed whole meals of Offal, or package it up? I tried to move Guinness to whole meals, but he had the WORST ever gas when I did that, so...
Hey Terry, Sounds like an icky situation!!! My girls can all handle whole offal meals, so that's the way we do it. A pig liver here, a beef kidney there....
... this week & found the $28.99/150gm & $153.99/kg at Trailblazers, $29.99/150gm at Pet Planet & $17.95/50gm at UFA. That kind of suprised me, as it makes...
Hey guys, In case you haven't had a chance to go through your flyers....Soby's is having dollar days. Just picked up some beautiful bone in skin on pork...
Meat for a buck a pound? I'm there! Thanks for the heads-up. Anika ... In case you haven't had a chance to go through your flyers....Soby's is having dollar...
Hi everyone, Is it all week? I do not get any flyers from Calgary. We had dollar days at our local IGA two weeks ago and I pick some things up but not near...
Hey Ron, I'd imagine that if they were going to slow down a bit it would probably be when they are through all the growth spurting. If you go by the general...
I agree, it totally depends on the dog. Guinness is 3 now, and has a super high metabolism, he weighs 65-70lbs and I feed him around 2.5 lbs per day. That is...
Yes, it's all week, probably until Saturday? As far as slowing down...my girls are about 120 & 135lbs. They both ate a lot more up to about the age of a year,...
Thanks for all the quick reponses to my question. I just got back from talking to the owner of the local IGA. He is looking into pricing for bulk orders of...
I'm up for deals on quantity any time. We became a two chest-freezer household a couple months ago, so I've got more freezer space! YAY!!! Speaking of deals,...
Annika, I'd take some ground Turkey. Let me know how it goes. Lori ... From: CalgaryRawFeeders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:CalgaryRawFeeders@yahoogroups.com] On...
