My rabbits are due to be bred, but i know I won't have the freezer space for all of them come processing time... I want to go ahead and get all 4 does bred, though, to keep things functioning and their reproductive organs healthy. I was talking to a new friend/acquaintance today after dog sitting her Great Pyr for an hour or so - (long story short the gate was open, dog was gone... she ran to check the shelter down the road while the kids played on the play ground figuring it was a shot in the dark. Came back with her dog! Yay! BUT she was already late for a doctor's appt. so I offered to keep her at the playground while she went. Sweetheart of a dog - totally in love). I know she believes in healthy, organic eating so I asked if she fed her raw. She said she would like to since she doesn't seem to like the kibbles anyway, but hasn't tried it yet. She was interested in some rabbit for her! So... what would be the best way to get her started for a dog that size (currently only 9 months, so still growing). Are 8 week olds enough, or do they need to be bigger? I remember Akanes post on her snake and the nutritional differences of animals depending on age, but since bones are pretty well formed by then maybe there's not much difference? How is it best to process them? I was reading the other recent thread about feeding raw and there are a variety of options... not sure which would be best for starting out? Whole, skinned, pieced, with or without certain organs, etc.???
This has probably been answered a number of times on here, but migraines are limiting my computer time so I figured i would just start something new...
