ECONO RAW FEED PROGRAM

[Kimo615]

I don't think I'm mistaken. Yes, they are given antibiotics, but not growth hormone or steroids. If they are they are doing so illegally. I imagine there are other ways to cut the price than pumping chicken full of drugs....which I'm not sure would decrease the price anyway......drugs cost money.

Sorry, but I don't get your logic regarding the less expensive chicken. You wouldn't feed it, but you would feed dog food that probably uses even less expensive chicken, then burns it into kibble.

imo, that human approved chicken is still 100x better than any bag of dog food.

im not saying that kibble is better than good quality chicken , what I am saying is that I would prefer to feed a top quality
kibble which is out there and add top quality supplements rather than feed chickens which are fed absolute crap as feed and also pumped full of antibiotics which then get into the dogs system and our own if we eat them , if the whole purpose of feeding raw is to not feed our dogs the crap contained in most kibbles , so why feed chicken that's is no better full of drugs,when there are some top quality kibbles out there which don't have all the crap the others do ,and use better protein sources than other kibbles do ,and at least we know that until we can afford the better chicken then at least is not going to kill our dogs any quicker feeding them top kibble rather than bad kibble or crap chicken .

I know that's not what you are saying. I just disagree. Even crap chicken is better than kibble IMO. Hell, the truth is most chickens are pumped full of antibiotics and housed in poor conditions....whether they cost .39 lb or 1.50 lb. If people want chicken free of drugs they will have to do what you do and feed free range from a a small farm.....which isn't viable for most.

But we can agree to disagree.
