    Yeah!!! I was just thinking that I've gotten "low" on venison hearts. And by "low" I mean I probably only have about 15 or 20 of 'em left!!

    Ania likes all of her food equally (except fish), but I like the venison hearts the most-est. They really are a thing of beauty. So pretty and pristine!

    Jeezus. What happened to me? Getting all doe eyed over organs... (get it? Doe eyed? )

    Nutrition wise, no. But anatomy wise? Yep, they sure are!

    I'm gonna be moving pretty soon and won't have much money eith, so hope to get some free meat. I have a cousin who goes to south texas and hunts those weird antelope - no one in the family much likes them and I've always been too far away (I would eat them myself, i can't stand to see good meat wasted) so hopefully can get alot of meat from him. . Also I know some hunters. Hopefully I can get enough people hunting for me that I can share.

    I know one thing, I won't be able to just order up whatever I want from My Pet Carnivore. I also want to get some chickens and Lord help me, slaughter them myself. Maybe some ducks. then again, with all my cousins who dress their own game, surely i can get one to kill poultry for me.

    At least with raw food, i know there's a chance i can feed my dogs really cheaply. With dry food, feeding them cheaply meant Ole Roy or Purina.

    I would love to raise my own rabbits, lamb, goats etc. but slaughtering would be an issue for me too...

    Has anyone heard anything about another Niman Ranch database? I think we ordered from them a year or two ago. They offered a ton of stuff, but the delivery went a little haywire.... I really liked their pork, and I want it again! I also want their lamb spleen.
