I have always found raw marrow bones at the supermarket. Years & years ago they would give them away, but they are no longer free. Talk to the butcher at your local supermarket. In a pinch, I have ordered a 40-lb. box of chicken backs from the local supermarket also - but they of course charge WAAAY too much. Find a meat wholesaler in your area and ask him if he would sell you a box of chicken backs. I have done that. They of course look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them its for the dogs, but that's ok - just as long as they will sell me a box ! :) I have never heard that bones will splinter if they are first frozen. When they are cooked, yes, they will splinter, but I never heard that about frozen. Check out http://www.ipindex.com to find a supplier in your area.
