No, more a non-acceptance in some nutrition research circles of all the stuff we read (credible research and otherwise) that talks of vitamin uptake/non-uptake between egg yolk and egg white, and whether one counteracts the effect of the other (or not) and the possible cause of imbalance of other food and the tiny amounts that might throw everything out of whack anyway. I didn't take it all on board, just accepted that benefits of feeding them could be outweighed by safety on not feeding eggs, and took the advice to give them a miss. I find "no eggs" just as easy as "ad lib eggs" to manage. I cannot be bothered finding a middle road though of one just now and then: what they don't get they don't ask for. (They both still look good for 16ish). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaCharlie Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Like anything, it's best to feed them raw. Shell and all. An egg is a perfectly balanced meal in itself buy if you only feed bits of it then it can throw omegas etc off balance (at one stage there was someone preaching that they should only get the egg whites, or only the yolk, something like that, and it got proven wrong). If I had my own chooks my dogs would be getting an egg every day! I have some that will eat the shell but the others I crush it and mix it through their food or blend the whole egg with veggies.

truebredlabradors Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Yes, I use eggs for pups and older dogs. Not too many at once, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjosa Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Yes I feed scrambled egg to the young puppy that I have at the moment, with the adults they get eggs in the meatloaf that I make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PANDI-GIRL Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Would it be OK to Scramble 2 eggs and feed as one meal, no milk used. I like PANDI to eat different foods each day I think it would be good for her Immune System, not to be on 1 food only. i'ts fun finding different foods she can eat safely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
