Turkey Necks... Yes or No?

Ril-Mas · 11-13-2012, 09:21 PM

I'm very torn on if I want to try turkey necks. Logan and Abby are both pretty thorough chewers, but I'm still very nervous about them. Do you feed them? Ever have a problem with them?

Well I ended up posting this on another forum and got positive feedback on them so I'm giving them a try. I'll be monitoring closely so hopefully all will go well!

I love turkey necks

They are great for cleaning teeth and adding bone to a meal. I routinely feed them frozen so they last a bit longer.

I love feeding my guys turkey necks too.. Mainly frozen in summer winter i defrost at least half way but no matter they have to chew them if they tend to be bigger hold it for them to chew the big end!!

I to WISH i could get turkey & chicken for those prices here..

I Cant complain to much as i have a few coworkers giving me a big garbage bag of freezer burnt mixed meats next week

also one guy is giving me some liver from his hunting!!

Mya gets turkey necks all the time. I give it to her frozen and she loves it.

Yup,Valant`s fav meal of the day

Even better if you freeze them for teeth cleaning.(oh,and no skin)

Thanks, I'm feeling much better about them now. I can't wait to get my first order. The freezer should be in next week and the real fun begins! LOL

Weird question, do the come with skin on them? This will make another thing I have to remove the skin on? Oy! LOL

I have never seen Turkey necks with skin, they always come skinless when I order them.

My dogs love Turkey necks. The Shih Tzu gets the smaller end and Baron chomps down the rest.At 5 the vet is amazed who white her teeth still are.

Yeah,vet said the same thing about Valant`s 11 yrs old teeth too

Of course,he has only been eating them for a couple years,so some are still in bad shape,but surely not my fault,cant put a tooth brush in his mouth hrhrhr
