While the other two still refuse to consider the ground chicken ( www.keystonenaturalfoods.com/ground-chicken-meat-bones-and-organs-1-lbs/) to be a food that can be eaten without kibble mixed in, Satan ate it this morning without kibble. The others ignored it for the 8 hours I was at work until I got home and made them a new plate with kibble mixed in. They imediantly proceeded to eat it that way. After giving Satan more ground which he ate which put him at roughly 3oz of food I dug a chicken wing out of the freezer thawed it cut it in half and cut off a few chunks here and there. Before bed, I scuffed and stuffed him with one of the larger pieces (no bone) which he ate then he checked out the plate licked the big piece with the bone a few times then drug it to the blanket to chew on for a bit. He likes it better covered in blanket fuzz... I can't wait to see if he eats it. I also offered the two a single oz of only ground in case they get hungry enough overnight to give it a shot.

Sounds like progress is being made. One thing to watch for with mixing kibble and raw is bacterial overloads. Cause nasty foul smelling poops and tummy aches, and needs antibiotics to clear up

Cause nasty foul smelling poops and tummy aches, and needs antibiotics to clear up It looks like atleast one of the two in the main cage got hungry enough to eat the ounce of just raw last night so hopefully I won't have to worry about it anymore.

He did eat the chicken wing bone and all or atleast without completely removing the blankets from his cage I haven't found it lol. I did search a little but he's constantly trying to escape the second I open the door poor thing. That was Satan's poo when I woke up. It looks a little mucusy but it's not deep dark green like it was before so I imagine it's just from getting used to the food change?
