Raw meat diet questions

[The Serpent Merchant]

Careful about cooking. Cooking often destroys important nutrients in raw, rending it useless to feed.

Thanks for the rec Doolittle.
Yes, my ferrets are indeed on a raw diet. They're obligate carnivores.
My dog is however, not on a raw diet (yet).
She's still a young pup. Feeds on Taste of the Wild and supplemented some raw+bone.

When I say cooking I mean 2 minutes in a pressureless steamer. Enough to firm it up just a tough and kill or weaken most nasty stuff.

I also believe that the destroying of nutrition by lightly cooking is overstated just as it is about freezing rodents in the reptile hobby. None the less that is why I moved to a 50% raw, 50% kibble diet to cover any gaps created by cooking or in my raw diet.
