Whole Prey Quail Grind
True Whole Prey. Feathers Included.
Ground whole from quail with organs and feathers intact, this is as close to whole prey feeding as a grind can get. Nothing removed, nothing added. Just the complete bird.
Our Whole Prey Quail Grind is made from complete quail ground with everything included: muscle meat, organs, bone, and feathers. Feathers are a natural source of keratin and insoluble fiber that supports healthy gut motility and mimics what a pet would consume in the wild. This grind can be fed as a complete meal, though supplementing is recommended to close any nutritional gaps. Cat owners must add a taurine supplement.

Raw Feeding Fact
At 61.6 ppm as fed, this grind contains more than twice the iron of any other protein in our grind lineup. That extraordinary iron level comes from grinding the whole bird including organs like liver and spleen, which are among the most iron-dense tissues in any animal. For pets dealing with anemia, low energy, poor coat condition, or recovering from illness, whole prey quail is one of the most naturally concentrated sources of bioavailable heme iron you can feed.
