    |
|
Coco had her first bull's pizzle yesterday which she seemed to enjoy though it lasted less than 5 minutes. Oh boy did it stink - I'm glad I didn't give her it at home! She won't be getting too many of those.
I was asking the man on the natural pet foods stall about Stag Bars (deer antlers) and he told me that there is something going through parliament in April which may prevent these being sold in future, he didn't know the details but he thought it was to do with deer being killed for their antlers.
So if you want to get any, get them quickly.

Thanks for the warning... will get a stock in (tho they claim they are from discarded antlers..... did wonder as one of mine has a round bit like a root on it)

The leaflet that was delivered with mine say they're either discarded or from deer that have been killed for their meat

I get antlers for Murphy from the local shoot, all of which are discarded.
Have never fed bull's pizzles though, the thought makes me feel a bit ill
