HELLO ALL,
DOES ANYBODY KNOW OF A BUTCHER OR SUPPLIER OF BARF FOOD IN THE ESSEX AREA , OUR LOCAL BUTCHERS DONT SEEM TO HAVE ANY IDEA OF WHAT B.A.R.F IS.

THANKYOU.

Sorry, im not in the essex area, but have you tried using the AMP frozen meats? You can get them at Pets at Home stores...

As far as butchers go, keep looking, go for the small village type jobs, the posh ones, as they really butcher their own stuff, rather than just buy in prepackaged stuff......when they butcher themselves, ther will be left overs, which u can usually score for FREE!!!

I can get massive sacks full of lamb ribs, beef ribs, lamb shanks, chicken carcasses ....all sorts of gory stuff, from my local butcher. But, it took me ages of going round butchers explaining what parts i needed, what i couldnt use etc etc......also if you do find one, ask them really nicely if they will cut stuff up smaller for you, u have NO idea how hard it is to seperate out lamb ribs in to 2's and 3's if you have only got kitchen scissors and ablunt knife (u need a hatchet or a power saw or a really sharp hacksaw).

Goood luck

Instead of asking for barf try asking them if their suppliers can get you boxes of chicken frames/backs, or if your butcher can supply breast of lamb, pork or lamb necks - these and more all qualify as raw feeding.

Most butchers can get boxes of chicken frames if they try because these are also sold to restaurants etc for making stock.
