I'm giving Raw Feeding a try after going from one brand of kibble to the next trying to find the right one, with no luck I might add. I've been giving her chicken for the last 3 days. I started reading up on the subject of Raw Feeding a few months ago so I knew to start there. So far, so good. First of all, she absolutely LOVES it and I guess the kibble is now out of her system because this morning's stool was very small and firm.
She's 16 months old and weighs 40 pounds. I've been giving her 8 ounces per feeding, two feedings per day. Does this sound right?
I've been removing the skin and extra fat for now. When I introduce the skin and fat later should I count them as part of the 8 ounces? Or do I give 8 ounces of muscle meat and bone with the skin and fat being extra? I know this sounds like I'm being too precise but Lucy gets a serious case of the squitters if I over feed her even just a little. Later I'll be able to do away with the weighing but for now I want to be pretty exact.
As far as freezing goes.....if I buy a bunch of meat on sale and then freeze it, is it ok to defrost it, portion it out, and then refreeze it? I've heard that meat is not supposed to be refrozen once it's thawed out. Is that only when it comes to humans?
Thanks!!!
