...on a fb raw feeding group. What always makes me laugh is when they use "studies" from 20 years ago Also, you have no idea if they were giving the right amount of organs etc Anyway, thought I'd share with everyone: www.azmira.com/StudyRawFoodDiets.htm

On these types of articles, you have to look at who is writing the article. A dog food company. Of course they aren't going to post a favorable article! They have a product to sell!

Exactly! But the problem is, people will read it and take it for gospel. I mean, a test that was done over 10 years ago!

I'm not an advocate for the BARF style of feeding. I think that Billinghurst was a great pioneer into raw feeding, but the diet has been changed and morphed and refined into prey model and I think that's better and healthier. BARF has you feeding chicken backs 50% of the time and a veggie glop and a ton of supplements. It's complicated. NO thanks, I'll stick with meat/bone/organs!

I don't like barf either when I used the natural instinct pre mades with veg in daisy pooed more and they were larger just proved even more it's not needed and when lotus had those chicks she shook the intestines out!!!
I have billinghursts breeding book itsfabulous he actually says to feed organs and at the end of the pregnancy up the organs to give an almost laxative effect which makes total sense! So he must have changed his view somewhat!
