1. Whole chickens cut in half (legs and thighs removed for the humans' meals)...air chilled, not water chilled.

7. Long meaty pork ribs

Once in a while we feed other stuff as snacks or Kong stuffers but the above is pretty much their main meals.

Supplements aren't necessary if you're feeding a variety of meats and organs. No point in buying veggies specifically for your pets. Just throw half a handful of whatever you have in the fridge into a juicer or blender and add to meat once or twice a week.

So many factors influence prices. Your location (I think meat is a lot cheaper in the States than in Canada), quality, and where you make your purchases ie. grocery store, poultry store, markets, butchers, wholesale distributors, farmers, etc..
