I know it sure helps digestion when switching from kibble to raw and it really helps with weight loose. I have 2 cocker spaniels who tend to put weight on easy. The rotty you can feed 1/2 a cow to I think and then the shepherd she just takes her good ole time as she has...
I raise meat rabbits for us and our dogs. I usually skin them whole and the and take it out to the back yard and give it to a dog. I have also given them whole chicken carcusses with the wings, breast meat and legs cut off, and whole mackerel and sardines. I have one cocker spaniel who will...

It has turned out very nice... I am learning. My tomatoes have not been happy but we...
Farmfresh,
Your exactly right about the airflow. Just like chickens, rabbits do not handle the heat well. That is why we made it one sided and that is the side where the wind,rain and snow comes from most of the time. Then with it so close to the tree line it helps it out a lot. Plus the...
Take a look at my rabbit shed that holds a total of 4 cages. 2 for my does...... one smaller one for my buck and another one, the same size for does and is used as a grow out pen. The small hutch to the left was a Free Craigslist item I also use as a grow out pen. The entire structure, cages...
The only thing I debone from time to time is the loin. I leave the legs whole. To me, it makes for easier cooking. I love to cook and am always experimenting. Marinate the hunks of meat in a good pesto and bake at 400 and get it done.......... Good eating! I also have another recipe on "my...
I buy corn tortilla's and cut them into pie shapes and deep fat fry, drain on paper towels and salt. Wonderful! They are great! And way cheaper then the stuff in the bags and has a lot better flavor.
Black Cherry Jello........... I have got to try this on fresh rabbit now. It sounds...
You can most definately dehydrate it for you dogs........ they would love it I am sure. There are also plenty of people like myself, who you could find on craigslist who feed their dogs a RAW diet. I always take freezer burnt chicken, venison, beef, ect...... I have 4 dogs, all on a RAW diet...
I have 4 dogs and they all eat a RAW diet of meat and bones. They eat, chicken, rabbit, eggs, beef, buffalo, elk, deer, pig, antalope, duck, sardines, mackerel (whole and canned), and anything else I can find!
The reason for RAW is when you cook bones it breaks them down and they splinter and...

I would take a gal jug and put 2 cups sugar and a 1/2 gal of vodka and shake until the sugar has disolved. Once disolved, fill the rest of the 1 gal jug with cherrys, pits and...
I also raise meat rabbits on this 1/2 acre property and am enjoying the benefits of the high quality of meat for the table and the great addition to my compost piles. I am extremely satisfied and pleasantly suprised at how easy and inexpensive it is to raise my own low calorie, low fat meat for...
I used 1/3 peat moss, 1/3 2 kinds of compost (mushroom & cow in my case) and 1/3 a cheaper miracle grow garden soil.
I do think the recipe in the below site is better I just could not afford the vermiculite.
