We feed only prey model raw, meat, organ, and bone, beef, pork,or what ever you can get. Chicken maybe once or twice per week. When we feed chicken buy a whole one about 4-5 pounds cut it in half = 2 meals. Werner http://imagegermanshepherds.com/ ; IMG akc Reg'd. BISS Am/Can CH. Scher-Lo's Mr Karizma HIC.OFA h&e Am.CH.
