I retired from dog rescue since May 2023, due to husband dealing with dementia and I am now "old". I raised 30 male Pekins, butchered all but 5 from Metzer Farms. Then a week after ordering them I ordered 3 female Pekins, 3 buffs, and 3 heavy layer white ducks to add to the 3 Swedish layers and 7 Muscovy girls.
I also have 8 chicken hens and two roosters and 5 surviving youngsters our of 8 (the dogs killed three)...
The economy as it is I have become a prepper of sorts and this summer added 3 female meat breed rabbits and a buck.
I am a farmer's daughter who married a city boy and we live in southeast Missouri. We currently have 16 dogs on the property, nine are ours and seven are on a raw meat diet. I butcher the deer, beaver, beef, chickens, ducks, etc to feed the dogs.
So I know a good bit about raw diet nutrition and spend a good deal of time researching nutrition for dogs, not curious and learning what I can about poultry.
I had raised poultry back in the 90's and early 2000. They stopped when I got into dog obedience training then rescue.
