Hello, I'm almost ready to raw feed every day (have now got a chest freezer) and I've been gathering bits and pieces and have found a great butcher who can help me on the bones front. I can get an almost unlimited amount of free bones I think (mainly venison but also lamb, pork and beef - not beef leg bones I know). I've got pigs and sheeps heart on order which I know counts as the "meat" part rather than offal and I have another butcher who can do me a cheap offal mix. I presume though that I should be giving them more variety than this - eg feeding different sorts of meat?
I'm planning to go to a car boot meat stand and hopefully get cheap chicken there, but are there any other suggestions for very cheap cuts of meat? And it really does have to be cheap as DH is v unimpressed at our total spend on pets each month!
Or would I be ok just feeding heart each day? ps, pigs trotters are a step too far for me - I'm v squeamish, I've tried trotters and cannot cope with great hunks of leg and toe on my kitchen floor! I have looked at other raw feeding threads by the way, but am struggling to glean the exact info I need.
thanks

The doghouse
How much variety do I need in my dogs raw feeding diet and what's the cheapest way of feeding the meats part of raw food?
