Sorry! I've been consumed with finishing up taxes I will post the menu stuff tomorrow. Rabbit was a great hit! However, it gave him a bit of diarrhea, but I followed it up with chicken wing and poops got better. I gave him some of the ribs with some breast meat attached for his rabbit breakfast and the bones were gone in no time, leaving behind the breast meat- until later. Guess a new protein can cause a bit of an upset??? Question: I premixed his organs for Friday and Sunday nights. I didn't realize his appetite was going to shrink. I still gave him the 2 oz. meal and he ate almost all of it, but he had lots of organ poops on his pad the next morning. Should I cut back on the amount? So far, his meals have gone up and down in weight. One day he eats little, maybe 2 oz all day and the next nearly 5 and back down. How do you decide what size meal to make standard for getting the organs right? Thanks for all your help! And you too, katt, lurking in the background

Question: if I feel like I need someone to reply ASAP, is there a code or flag or anything to give it a high priority? Hoping I don't ever need to use it, but hoping there is something in place for that.
Thanks again wonderful mentors!

Did my post get deleted about adding me on Facebook?? On the bright side you've added me so all is well. Maybe it's just not showing up on my end.

I'm home and all is well. I could swear that Booger looks even better than before I left! I applaud my son and husband for their care this time! Last time, instructions weren't followed and he lost a little weight. Now, I can barely see those little hip bones that were sticking out still with the transition. I'm a happy grandferrent!!!

Stools on various proteins--pretty good Still seems to need all the bone-in meals with no muscle substitutions. 5. Activity levels: great! He seems more alert at times when you think he's sound asleep, he will get up to hang out sometimes. He is so lovable with my son now and I think he missed that. Leaving him for almost a week was good for their relationship! My son sees the benefit of the raw diet and all the work that it involves. 6. Weekly menu: week of April 24th
Sunday am CK wing pm half/half organs (PK spleen and DK liv)
Monday am Frog legs pm Ck wing
