Hi guys, I'm hoping you can help me whilst I wait for a mentor. George will now eat chunks of chicken, gizzards, heart and liver. Heart is his fave so far! I know he needs another 2 protein sources so would like to try and get him on some different meats. I have some ground up, bone, heart in rabbit, but he doesn't seem to like that.
Should I try sneaking in some other meats and if so, what's the best to start with?
I don't want to put him off eating when he's only just started eating properly again!
Thanks
Beckie

Try some Cornish Game hen. It's pretty similar to chicken, he might not even notice the difference.

I've not seen that anywhere in Leeds, UK and a quick google doesn't bring anywhere I can buy it from online.
If i can't get that is turkey a good next step?

Turkey is good, all of mine will eat that. I looked up Cornish Game hen, to see what it is called in the UK. It's referred to as a game hen or Cornish Rock. According to my search, it's just a small chicken 1-1.5lbs. Take a look at this: www.cooksinfo.com/cornish-game-henHmm...that didn't link. let me try again.

Hmmm I still can't find any UK stockists. I guess I'll go with turkey as our next try. He seems to be doing well still which is good.
Esmerelda on the other hand has backtracked a bit so we will have to ease back on the amount of chicken in her kibble soup.

Rabbit would be another good protein as well. How are they doing on bone? ciao

I have some minced rabbit that includes bone, heart and liver but he won't eat it so far.
He also won't eat bone yet so I've been adding bone meal to his meaty chunks. Esmerelda is still on kibble and chicken soup.
