Want to share ideas for Bones And Raw Food (BARF) diet?

I have been griding a variety of things typically 50% chicken backs & necks and selected other items like chicken or beef liver, beef heart or kidney, beef toung or cheek meat. To that I add fresh salmon a few garlic cloves and Nupro dietary supplement in the recommended amount. I usually make enough for 45 10oz servings which I bag and freeze. That is Tuckers AM meal. His PM meal is 12 oz of chicken drumsticks & thighs. Both meals get a sprinkling of Dogzymes "digestive enhancer probiotic" and a gycoflex chew. We have had him on this for 2 years and he is in wonderful shape, teeth look great and his stools are small and dry and very easy to deal with. I am wondering if there are packaged products that someone has had experience using that could substitute for the morning meal. I don't mind doing it that much but I wondered what other people are doing. I'm sure this has been discussed previously but I went back about 1 pages and didn't see anything so I was hoping to start a new discussion. Thanks for any ideas you'd like to share.

Actually I was looking for any suggestions about adding (or subtracting) anything that I seem to be missing. Also, if someone knows a reasonably priced source for pre packaged frozen meals along the lines of the mix I am now making that might be helpful. At the moment I don't mind doing it, but it is a 5-6 hour project to make about 45 days worth.
If you can handle the green tripe....it stinks......that would have the "veggies" inside that would give a more complete diet. Instead you could supplement with green veggies, fruit such as apple, carrots, and vitamin supplements. I'm remembering kelp, alfalfa, fish oil, and ???
I thought about the green tripe, I've heard it's awful to deal with and I'm not sure where I could get it around here. I was told that the Nuprp supplement serves to replace the vegetable nutrients and vitamins. I've always included salmon for the fish oil. I know the white (bleached) tripe isn't of any value, but I've also seen a kind of "grayish" looking tripe but has Hispanic labeling and I'm not sure if that is what green tripe looks like or not. They carry it at our Walmart but I couldn't find anyone there who knew what it was.
HI Jay!
