Hi there,

I have a couple of questions about the Beef Heart recipe that's listed on the site:

It says in the ingredients to add "20 prenatal vitamins" to the recipe. Is there any type or dosage for these? Since I know NOTHING about prenatal vitamins, are they all pretty much the same (just vary from name to name) and I can assume that no matter what I get this is ok to add to the recipe? I was at the store tonight and I found "Prenatal Multivitamin/Multimineral Dietary Supplement". Is this what I need??

Also, it says to freeze this, but should I freeze it in smaller bags (like Ziploc bags) and take out a bag at a time to thaw out to feed them (how long will it stay fresh in the fridge after thawing) or do I just feed it to them frozen?

Thanks in advance for the help!
Thanks!

Joey

personally i dont go throught the trouble of making my own beefhearts. i just go the the local petsmart and buy them prepackaged. its a lot easier this way.
Warning..I will offend you at some point!!!


my goal is simple a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all

i used them fresh frozen. just remove all tendon and fats.
alternately, use pork spleen. if you feed too much for a day
dont feed the following day to avoid over feeding and to avoid
constipation. if you want to add vitamins, just buy them and
give it to the oscar. if not taken, they will dissolve and still
taken by them. capsule can be taken by oscar.

Well, I tried the beef heart recipe & good grief was it a hit! He gets so excited when he sees me coming with the zip lock bag he starts zipping around on the surface sloshing water & he'll even jump clear out of the water & into the air while I'm dropping the little pieces in the tank.
Thanks!

congrats.
but as a precaution, beefheart is very high protein
foods, so feed your o every otherday or give him/her
an alternate foods to avoid problems in digestive system.
