Menu set up looks good. I use Hare Today and Rodent Pro as my online sources. Many others here also use My pet Carnivore. Hare Today has a great variety. I get my duck necks, chicken necks and turkey necks from there and my gizzards and liver and heart and the whole ground rabbit. Rodent Pro is for whole prey, mice, rats, quail, guinea pigs, and chicks.

So im going to replace the turkey necks with whole quail. Also is pork kidney or uterus okay to give them as an organ meal to go with the liver?

If you can get turkey necks usually, do not replace them just add quail. Yes the kidneys and uterus are fine additions.

That's fine also as a side note most places that you order from you should order as close to 100lbs in order to insure it stays frozen during delivery. So that makes the delivery charges worth it a bit more.

yeah but I have no where to store 100 pounds of meat lol. I struggle to find room for 10 pounds of food. Im not giving up i live near a major city so im still scoping out butchers, Asian markets, etc. so hopefully I will find more places with more variety.

Minnie hasn't really touched anything She didnt eat any of the wing or Turkey and Binxie ate the wing only. They Both LOVE CGH and thats what there getting tomorrow morning so im hoping minnie eats a lot to make up for missing. Binxie just decided to eat the wings for breakfast and dinner today which is better then not touching anything. (i did still chop up the bone because it's only there second time getting bone-in).

Sometimes when introducing something new you have to give the the same meal for a few days in a row. It helps them to remember it is food the next time they see it. You may want to try that starting tomorrow with the wings or necks. Sorry I have not been on much the last few days, I rescued 2 ferrets on Mother's Day and one ended up needing emergency surgery. Not sure if you are in the Facebook group or not but if you are I'm Heather Losthermind and Loki and Keto have been keeping me busy! Lol

I am on facebook page! Sorry to hear about the emergency surgery i hope everything went well though! Sounds like you have had a busy time! I've been busy too with trying to keep up with this new diet its hard trying to plan and move things around to cater to their meal times. But they both just had Quail today as bone in and they ate the whole thing minnie really liked it which always makes me excited she is so pickey binxie always hogs too. Tonight is their red meat meal.
As for tomorrow they will get chicken wing in the AM. and 1/2 liver, and 1/2 pork kidney.
Now i finally have an updated meal plan plus after all the searching for turkey neck they actually sell it at the place i work lol.
