the best thing i have found so far is young whole chickens. they are a little cheaper when i can get two at a time, but they are already gutted, and i cut them up. i have tried the local grocery stores, little carnecerias, which have acerin which is basically a mix of all kinds of meat that they dont sell for humans to eat. perfect right...i have gone to the ones that do this everyday for a week and they never have it. i also went to the only butcher, that i know of, that still cuts thier own meat and they to said no that they use everything in their ground beef.

See if you can find a restraunt wholesale supplier. I get fresh necks, backs & leg Qtrs & 10 rolls of ground meat there. You may have to travel a bit to find one. Mine is an hour away...but well worth the trip as I purchase 200 lbs of meat at a time every 3 months for 2 adult dogs. Obviously you have to have the freezer space to hold 40 cases of meat to buy wholesale. I package all the meat in 2-4 meal portions & freesze. It usually takes about an 1 1/2 hours to process my order when I get home. I have a friend that helps me. I have been buying from a wholesaler for 5 years or so. The savings is substantial. 30 cents a lb for necks & backs, 45 cents for leg qtrs. etc.
Well worth the trouble of finding a wholesaler & purchasing a freezer if need be to take advantage of the savings.
Like Konnie,I usually use a pre made raw (Bravo)for very youmng pups & then switch them to a homemade raw diet or combination of the 2 at about 6 months & then to a total homemade diet by 8 months.
It's a rainy ugly day here. Ripley has been asleep since he ate his hen. Lots of stomach noises coming out of that boy. Hope I can rouse him tonight in time for class.
Going to an indoor farmer's market tomorrow. I hear they have beef heart.
I got to say that personally, I think the roadkill is a mistake. Especially for an infant.
Let the crows and other critters who are completely immune to clostridia (tetanus, botulism, gangrene and friends) preform highway maintenance.
Its the run-over effect that bothers me. Guts smashed into tissue. Lying in the sun in Santa Fe.
Not something I'd feed a pup, but whatever floats your boat!

I wouldn't feed an old rotten squirrel or a rotten chicken neck out of the fridge.
You are both right about sun and age .... not so much for what we think of as "rottenness" but for rancid fat. Rancid fat is definitely something to avoid.
