We had more than a couple of failed attempts at switching but we got there eventually.

Beef heart has one of the highest taurine contents so should be a regular part of their diet. I feed mainly dark muscle meat (skin on and including bones) and organ meat from chicken and turkey and beef and lamb, hearts and organs. They also get some beef, lamb and pork muscle meat and treats like tuna and various other fish. They also get whole eggs mixed into their meat once a week. And of course they go out and catch their own birds etc.
Can I ask, do you have a tame butcher? Where do you get the meat from? Especially beef hearts? Could I get those from a butcher?
