I'm purchasing from Hare Today on Friday and was wanting feedback or things I should switch out, etc.
Here is my list.
Duck Hearts Duck Necks Coarse Duck = Organs/Bone/Meat Chicken Hearts Chicken Necks Coarse Chicken = Organs/Bone/Meat Ground Mouse Whole Quail Coarse Rabbit = Organs/Bone/Meat Beef Hearts Turkey Hearts
After totaling, it'll cost me about $84.00 before shipping so I'm looking at a hundred bucks. It's 30-31 lbs total of food so if I give 8 ounces to the, it'll last me about 60 days ALTHOUGH I intend to give Neytiri the cat some as a treat instead of her kibble. If I feed both of the it'll last about 15 days. I guess $100 dollars every 2 weeks isn't bad and I might be able to find stuff at my grocer lowering the costs!
Again, suggestions and changes you think I should make are welcome. Thanks!

is the whole quail the f/t prey, dressed carcass or ground whole quail? My guys will eat any of that EXCEPT the ground whole quail, and I think that's pretty common. Just something to be aware of

Well it looked like the whole quail minus the feathers? Kinda like what a chicken or turkey would look like before putting it in the oven just...smaller...haha.

Alright, that's the dressed whole carcass then, and from my experience it's fine (except the insides, which they'll sometimes eat, and sometimes won't, depending LOL)

So, "dressed" in other words Though why they refer to a naked bird as "dressed", I'll never know! That looks pretty good. And by getting a variety, you'll be able to find out what she takes to, and what she doesn't. And if she likes the ground mouse, odds are she'll adore the intact variety, too

So get some She'll likely take well to them. If not, just chop them while frozen, and mix them in with her meat chunks!
