Turkey Necks
So I finally found turkey necks at the supermarket down the street. They usually don't have them there but today I lucked out. I can't believe how cheap they are....67 cents for 4 large turkey necks
![]() Since this is the first time I'll be giving them to Barkley, I wanted to know if they were completely edible like chicken necks or are these more so just for recreational gnawing? I'm assuming that they're 100% edible but I wanted to double check ![]()

Yes, your pups can eat em, but some people say they're a bit boney, so you may want to feed some extra meat with them.

TD, I wanted to stock up at those prices, but I got the last pack :sad:
Instead of feeding turkey necks for dinner and then all meat at the next meal, would it be okay to feed a turkey neck for dinner tonight along with a hunk of ground chicken (no bones - meat only) to sort of balance it out?

Agreed! For breakfast today Rosco had a pound of boneless beef chunks, a few peices of beef heart and abunch of chicken necks. Total was around 2lbs. The key is to find out what works for your pet. If you feed somthing and it doesnt agree, cut back abit, or you may have to feed more bone with somthing else.
I find if i do an all tripe meal, rosco has stool that is very black, almost tar like. So I try not to feed it all as a meal. I'll add some chicken or beef to it. After a while you find what works for your pet ![]()

![]() TD, I wanted to mention that I :love: the idea I got from you about using baby food for veggies/fruits. I think it's brilliant! It's soooo much easier than pureeing it all myself or buying the premade fruit/veggie mix which is very expensive for what you're getting. Although I feed very little fruit and veggies to begin with, I do feed some because Barkley seems to like them and he doesn't appear to have any bad reactions from them. I have started to buy the baby food jars including sweet potato, peas, carrots, squash, blueberry/raspberry, and pears. Even better...they have them in organic versions as well, so I buy those....the furkid is worth it ![]() ![]()

Feeling a bit weird here. For several years, I've been buying packages of raw turkey necks to make my own turkey broth rather than buying commercial canned chicken broth. Wonderful for Turkey Noodle Soup. Sorry, Den-Den and Corky!
