Okay lets see...
Sun: Game Hen with organs
Mon: Chicken Thigh or other chicken piece
Tues: Venison Premade
Wed: Beef (or Veal) Chunk with Chicken wing tips
Thur: Game Hen with organs
Fri: Chicken Thigh or other chicken piece
Sat: Venison Premade
That look good? I will try to alternate Beef Chunk with Veal Chunks.
The organs were the same ones I made a while back on some page here...haha I think you told me to give 2 of those a week if I recall. Or is one enough? Or one week one and another 2?

The menu looks good, I have no problem with feeding bone everyday but most recommend having 2 or 3 days without. If you can just do 1 without then it would be fine, if not that's fine too.
I went back through the pages and found the posts about the organ.. Unless she is eating more then the 2oz per day that she was then I'd stick with one cube, or do like you said and feed 1 one week and 2 the next. The NV does have organ in it so she doesn't need a whole lot.
Hopwfully you and Mouse can stay on track, she likes the NV which is good if you need someone to ferret sit but she's on a much better diet over all now.
We'll get Guili in to review this

Schedule looks great.  I am so proud of your progress, you did a great job! Its time to graduate! Now there is one last thing I want you to do (and then I am moving this thread to the "newbie switch archive": If you havent already, it might be a good idea to start popping in toNaturalFerrets. I know forum is small right now, but that is because they are switching to the new forum from a yahoo! group. There are many many senior raw feeders on there and it would be wise to make use of their knowledge. I try and advise all my "completed switchers" to get on there and post a bit. I still want you to say on HF, but I want you to "broaden your horizons" by getting a bit of NaturalFerret's info as well. Sound good? www.NaturalFerrets.comYou'll probably run in to the Holistic Ferret Mentors on there. This is where THEY go to ask THEIR questions on natural diet (I do too). Let me know if you get any good info out of here. and....... Now that you've completed the switch, have had your feeding schedule reviewd, and been advised to check out NaturalFerrets, its time to retire this thread to the "newbie switch archive"!  No one (yourself included) will be able to post in this thread anymore once its been moved to the archive. Please begin posting your diet-related questions in the "whole prey" "raw" or "general feeding questions and discussion" area. We encourage EVERYONE that is archived to continue posting. Feeding a natural diet is a learning PROCESS, there is much to learn after making the switch. We (your mentor and I) will run a detailed "check up" with you (via PM or email) at the 3 month, 6 month, 9 month, and 1 year anniversary since "going natural" just to make sure all is going well and that you arent having any issues. Also, if you wind up getting a new addition any time in the future, just start a new thread in the "natural diet newbies" section if you need assistance. |

Congratulations Juli and Mouse!! Now Mouse can have a even better diet, you should see changes beyond what you had seen when you switched to NV. I'm glad you kept going and didn't give up on the switch, I know Mouse had a tough time with bones but you kept going. I'm very proud of you   |
