A little while back I made a post asking if there was a resource that explained, all in one place, various things about nutrients and supplements: which ones will hinder the uptake of certain others and which can help, what forms of vitamins and minerals are best to take for the body, which ones you must be careful not to take too much and which ( Read more... )

Hi guys! Thanks to everyone who responded to my last post about making good stock. I synthesized all the info, particularly the Weston Price link and darkenedminds's recipe, and made incredibly delicious stock. It tasted like mom's very best chicken soup before I even made it into soup! The main points that I absorbed were: use lots of bones and bony parts ( Read more... )

I'm doing a follow up to my post the other day, mostly because there were so many responses!! Thank you for the information, I probably should have clarified. Right now I do use fleece in my cage and nothing else, but I was wondering if I could possibly switch to aspen. I don't use pine or cedar but I was just making the reference of yeah...wood ( Read more... )
