Continue to keep and eye and see if anything changes, but if they still aren't eating any food, then they need to go back to the vet. I give my bunch dried duck feet (from Vital Essentials) as chew treats which they chew on for a very long time and don't always finish the larger bone ends, something to keep in mind when doing this is to keep a close eye on poops. Duck feet are very bony and can lead to constipation. Well then, I think you are gonna be just fine with raw-fed animals and your furbabies will really thank you once they get to reap all the benefits of their species appropriate diet.

I'm sorry, I haven't really been on the forum in the last while, I've been dealing with some issues at home and haven't had any spare time to really be on the forum lately. For where to buy meat, have a look to see if you have an Asian or other Ethnic store in a decent driving range from you. They will usually have a very nice selection of proteins, eg. duck, rabbit, goose, frog, quail, etc. that you can't usually find at your local grocery store. For items like chicken and turkey, or beef and pork for muscle meals, you can just go to your local grocery store. Be sure to check the packages over for ingredients to make sure they aren't using a tenderizing solution (salt water) though. Remind me. What stage of raw have yours been accepting last? Soup? Slivers? Chunks? Also, I don't see that you have signed up for the mentoring program at all, which is how you'd get a mentor for a one-on-one switch. Sometimes there can be a little bit of wait list, since all the mentors are doing this purely as volunteers and we also still have our regular daily lives to attend to.
