Does anyone use this? I just joined the breeders club and thought the prices were pretty good. I was going to put an order in until I saw the ingredients . both beef mince and rabbit mince contain 70% chicken and the chicken mince seems to have a large proportion of bone being minced necks and carcasses. What is the quality like? is it worth buying the beef and rabbit minces if there is so much chicken in them? and do people find the chicken mince too high in bone?

I was looking at this last week, thought I could get the big bags of mince (cheaper) but checking the big bags in Pets a H the beef at least doesn't seem to contain chicken - I want the added chicken/bone (solid -er poohs!!)
may be worth ringing them to check?

The website seems to be down at the moment but I don't get where you got the info that the beef mince has CHICKEN in it? It doesn't. I've just looked at a bag and it clearly says 100 % BEEF. I feed Natures Menu only to all my cats and all my toydogs (big dogs get a lot of meat and bones from a butcher), I order around £250 worth a month which has halved the food bill for the cats and toys. I got into a cheaper bracket as I ordered for more than £1001 last year -the more you order, the cheaper it gets. (That's 35 cats and 9 toydogs fed on it -no hang on, 11 toys as I also buy the food for my daughter's dogs.) I've always been very happy with them. :) I buy the complete blocks as well as minces, in them you get a variety of meats as well as vegetables.

You definitely want the ground in bone, it's extra calcium and yes it binds them up. They wouldn't eat boneless bird in the wild. :) I cannot feed the beef mince pure as it upsets stomachs so I always mix chicken in with it. My dogs particular favourite is the chicken and tripe mince -stinks less than pure tripe. :)

the freeflow mice seems to be just beef but their bulk packs of beef mince for breeders contain 70% chicken. so does the rabbit and the lamb also contains a high proportion of chicken. I know they need some bone but not too much particularly puppies who cannot excrete the excess calcium the same as adult dogs can.

I know they wouldn't eat boneless birds in the wild but neither would they eat just bones. they would get a lot of meat as well. Minced carcasses plus necks would seem to give a very high proportion of bone to actual meat.

Only buying it for Zuma who has about 1/2 a block a day split between the 2 feeds so don't need your sort of quantities :-D
PaH charge 89p a block but just been to local feed merchant who charges 74p a block so I bought 3 boxes!!! Couldn't do it before but just got a new 7' chest freezer so now got space to make it worth traipsing out to feed place.
Edited to add he has the meat WITH kibble - I'm not trying to starve him :-D

Just Beef 400 g blocks contains 100 % beef -website up again. I don't use the bulk packs, it's not enough of a saving and I want better products.

but yes the rabbits seems to have chicken in it -I don't buy it as my cats wouldn't eat it.
Look at the complete blocks though: http://www.naturesmenu.co.uk/product-multipack-blocks.aspx
The expensive basic price given is £9.48 + VAT but I pay just £4.94 + VAT with my breeder discount.

thanks I will try the beef block. I dont give my dogs cereal  and the complete seems to have rice in it. If it just had veggies in I might have tried it. My dogs do like rabbit when I can get hold of it (or they catch it) It seems a bit off to describe the rabbit as rabbit as there is more chicken than rabbit in it. It is also rather annoying that they don't seem to do lamb without chicken either unless I have missed that too.

The chicken & salmon complete is grain free.

I don't like their complete mixes, even the grain-free ones. They contain far too many peas, which come out as they went in. I also find their blocks very wet and sloppy.

There are quite a lot of companies now doing complete raw diets, which are IMO better than Natures Menu/Prize Choice.

If you use the Breeder Scheme with Nutriment you get 20% off (http://www.nutriment.co/breeder-scheme/).

My dogs also like quality raw diets and I have just moved to nutriment.

Have you also seen their  Making Friends offer - http://www.nutriment.co/making-friends/

Another good way of getting £10 discount

unfortunately even with 20% off this is far too expensive for all my dogs. it would cost over £10/day to feed my lot.

You could always use a cheaper supplier alongside Nutriment? I also get meat from Manifold Valley Meats which seems pretty good quality-wise and price-wise. And I feed a small amount of good quality, grain-free kibble.
