I've tried the minced rabbit but he's not a big fan,he likes tripe which I mix in with the beef. Chicken carcasses cost me £ 20 for about 15kgs, The meat I buy him is all frozen prize choice from the local pet shop.Ill have to have a look at local farms for some prices. I must say he does fancy the idea of a rabbit, if he see's one he bolts straight for it but at 10 stone they run him ragged!
Tripe is good. If you can speak to a farmer ask him/her for pure tripe - you get a whole stomach and the dog can chew it up - good for the teeth too. Along with the offal which they might be able to get as one lump (again, utility room turns into a slaughterhouse though)

I'd ask your local butcher to get chicken carcasses then at those prices, we pay half that...
