So far his poos are good and not too crumbly.
There isn't really enough tartar on his teeth for a pic plus I don't think ill be able to take a pic anyway! Lol
He's only got a lil bit of tartar so not sure if the camera will pick it up or not
Yep I'm already thinking about what I can add next (once his 2 weeks of chicken is done of course! Any suggestions?

It doesn't have to be 2 weeks lol if he gets all the kibble out and has no reaction to the raw then start changing however I would start to add more chicken before you go to other meats wings are super bone heavy so I'd try to do the odd thigh which are weigh meatier maybe try a thigh in a day or so and then go onto other meats I'd start with pork it's quite bland then do beef, tripe, turkey, lamb, fish, eggs then organs

I'd start with pork it's quite bland then do beef, tripe, turkey, lamb, fish, eggs then organs He is literally on 1/2 chicken wing twice a day at the moment. I take it a thigh i'd need to split in half to? Which cuts of the above do i feed? Still finding all a bit confusing and like ive jumped in at the deep end lol Not scared of it, but just want to make sure I give him the right bits and pieces When I start to add in other meats I need to add a bite of it to his chicken meals don't I? and then add in a little bit more the next time etc? He is doing so well I can't wait to give him something else to try |

Everything is done in weight so portion up the thigh to the same weight as what you've been giving! I would try increasing the meat before adding other proteins so he can have a just chicken meat the go back to the bone and add new meats a bite at a time if he does well with new stuff then you could prob do a pork rib as the bone would keep his stools firm!
You're not thrown in the deep end at all just you don't want to feed bone all the time I think we do every 3rd meal as a bone meal here but obv we've done it for a long time!!

I'm probably the only one here but I only fed mine once a day, I still do now. So I don't know about splitting it. Maybe in a day or so you can just give him the thigh (or split in two) and see how he does with more meat, you don't want him to get bunged up with too much bone lol and his stomach will get used to it soon so hopefully no loose stools.
Once his stomach is good with chicken, yes its just a bite at a time but be constant with the one meat.
I did like a slither and then increased it and then for a few days after that just did pork meals with a wing for bone content etc.
