Pastured Chicken Grinds
Pasture Raised. Whole Bird Nutrition.
A complete raw grind made from whole pasture-raised chickens with organic hearts and organic livers — no fillers, no additives, no shortcuts.
Our Pastured Chicken Grinds are made from whole naked chickens — skin, meat, and bone — blended with organic chicken hearts and organic chicken livers for a naturally balanced profile of muscle meat, secreting organ, and raw meaty bone in every bag. Sourced from pasture-raised birds with nothing ever added. This grind can be fed as a complete meal on its own, though we always recommend pairing it with a base mix or supplement to close any nutritional gaps. Cat owners must add a taurine supplement, as chicken muscle meat alone does not meet feline taurine requirements.

Raw Feeding Fact
Chicken is one of the most digestible proteins available for dogs and cats, making it an ideal starting point for pets transitioning to raw. Feeding whole-bird grinds — muscle meat, bone, and organ together — provides naturally occurring calcium and phosphorus in a biologically appropriate ratio, something processed foods can only attempt to replicate synthetically.
