Variety! Ah! haha I had a hunch that was what it was- we were going to go with whatever "meat" would be on sale- ie beef, lamb, chicken, pork, whatever, and switch it up each batch- would that be sufficient?

The offal we can get pretty much any kind pretty cheap, so we can always get the matching offal- my fiance works in a restaurant and does the ordering, so he can order us pretty much any weird thing we could ever imagine! We got 15 pounds of chicken for $10!

Also- is there such thing as TOO much egg? We were going to try and incorporate them as well- since we don't eat a lot of eggs, but want to use shells as opposed to bone meal for her calcium. We were wondering how often she can have an egg with her dinner so we don't throw them all away.

On a side note, we gave her her first batch last night & this morning, and I've never seen her scarf SO much! She has been staring at me all morning waiting for more! haha Also, she always get the runs, constantly from anything out of the ordinary- but her two poos since last night have been much more solid than anything in the past couple weeks! AND for the first time since we've had her, she actually left her bowl looking full last night [I was actually worried she'd throw up since she ate SO fast!]! This is so exciting!!
