The Absolute Best Eggs For Pets (Nutrition Details)

[@brie6889]

I’ve been looking for a comparison of eggs and hearts etc from different proteins for my cats. So happy to have found your channel!

[@HippieSmileyFace]

Another brilliantly researched and produced video. Appreciate the time and effort that goes into making these.

[@PawsofPrey]

Thank you so very much!

[@alex09aries]

Yes this channel is the best on KZbin compared to other similar channels.

I've seen quail eggs at Whole Foods and duck eggs at a smaller health food store. I was buying pasteurized raised eggs for my dog from the company Vital Farms until I read where they supplement their hens feed with corn and soybean meal. How disappointing.

[@masjanjka100]

I was also disappointed to find out that majority of the quail eggs are not from free range quail, since it’s difficult to free range due to their size… and any egg will be as nutritious (or not!) as was the bird’s diet:(

[@PawsofPrey]

That is disappointing! Do you have a farmers market near you by chance?

[@chevyhawk406]

@@PawsofPrey Yes, and there's an organic health food store that has the type of pasteurized eggs I prefer.

I've never ever seen a turkey egg in my life lol

Dear Mariah, Thank you for all you have shared regarding the benefits of feeding raw to pets. I’ve convinced a family member to have her dog start and she’s doing wonderful; three weeks in, a fast transition adding Gussies Gut. The only concern is the risk for humans getting licked by dogs after tye dog eats raw. Can bacteria/germs be transferred to humans through saliva? I’ve been reading on this topic and I found mixed answers. I’ve listened to all of your videos and other veterinarians but I don’t recall that question being asked. Thank you, for all that you do and for taking the time to read my question. Katherine

[@hammypie]

But how often can I feed the eggs a week for cats?

[@par3433]

Fantastic video as always!! How often do you add eggs to the diet? Is there anything to watch out for if feeding an egg a day/can it be too much?

[@jenc9333]

Thank you for this!

[@Animewolfgirl22]

I raise chickens so sometime they get fresh one fresh from the nest. I know what i feed my chickens and my dogs. Plus my dogs help protect the chickens so its their eggs are payment lol.

[@nghih856]

Silly question … my dog is allergic to chicken, will she be allergic to chicken egg as well?

[@mollycook1847]

Something to be aware of is that raw egg whites have avidin, which can bind to biotin. So maybe either skip the white or cook it if you're feeding a lot of eggs, as it can potentially lead to biotin deficiencies. If eggs are just a small portion of their diet, though, it is likely not a huge concern. (I would imagine effects to be more pronounced in smaller animals like rodents, where a whole egg would be a proportionately large amount of food.)

[@eldwinc1546]

just softboil the egg. avidin denatures when the egg white becomes a cloudy white while yolk 's still yummy gooey

[@lindalockhart1266]

Why not use the egg white too?

[@katherinejoseph7060]

i'm saving up my duck eggs for my dogs, they love it but i'm gonna buy some turkeys to raise for their eggs for my dogs also.😁😁

[@tynxgaming288]

Is it OK to feed your animal a raw eggs and wet food combined?

[@nancybordage3140]

My yorkie and my bichon mix they get quail eggs and golden retriever he gets chicken eggs from my farmer from down the road! Unfortunately don't do premade raw anymore way to expensive 😕

[@karaleeann1211]

If you whisk the egg up the dog typically will eat all, rather then leave the white behind, even if you can only afford cheaper eggs, they are still a great source nutrition.

[@julissabriseno5513]

Thank you for this tip! My Siamese cat will not eat his eggs. In going to mix it in with his food instead of having it on the side

[@hallaloth3112]

One of my boys attempts to steal the yolk everytime we hardboil eggs. I usually try to hardboil an extra egg for the kitties to split. I have offered it to them raw too, gotta find something to use the egg whites for though since they won't finish the whole thing if the white is there.

[@user-mf9ws2yv8u]

Hey there, I looove your videos. My dog is also getting raw food and eggs, but do you have considered the potential risk of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in raw pet food, even in organic options? While cooking for at least 10 minutes can mitigate the risk in conventional meat. I read many articles about it and it makes sense to me that most meat these days are full with antibiotics. I would like to know what you think about this, as I am not sure. Thank you

[@onlyinparadise4613]

Eggcellent 🥚video! What are the nutritional facts for ostrich and emu eggs? For chicken eggs, it’s best to use organic or pasture raised eggs, not GMO conventional eggs. 😉

[@PawsofPrey]

I haven't researched those, they're a bit too big for pets lol. But I'm sure there's some data out there

[@girlwiththewolves]

Ok, might sound like a weird question but... what video editor are you using ? 😅 I'm really struggling to find one that allows me to make simple text and animations like you do...

[@mr.zardoz3344]

My cat would rather endure a fur brushing than eat an egg.

[@prabhuvn]

Good content.. appreciate your efforts..Can we feed one raw chicken eggs daily with shell for a small/medium size dogs?

[@PawsofPrey]

Thanks! For small dogs, I'd say that would be a lot of calories to feed daily. Medium dogs, this may be fine. Just keep an eye on their weight

[@wintyforever]

Any thoughts on feeding raw eggs with the bird flu epidemic?

[@mistyakana6849]

Hi I work at a raw pet food store and i get asked this question a lot but don’t know the answer and hope you can help🙏 They want to know if raw pet food is complete. We sell ground up (beef, chicken, pork etc with the bone, organs and livers ground up with them as well) Does that make it complete nutrition for their pets?

[@kristaanne2144]

Usually if it’s complete the manufacturer will put complete and balanced on it, or at least include the nutrient profile (required in most places). I buy a premade raw which is supposed to be completely balanced, but I do add in fish, egg, kelp and give a bit of extra bone for calcium since my dog is young. Most of the time if it’s whole prey ground up it will be pretty close to complete, but could need certain things like omega 3’s, manganese, etc to make it fully complete. Hope this helps!

[@zentember]

if my dog has a chicken allergy will a chicken egg cause inflammation? i have him on quail eggs to be safe but i really do like the price point of chicken eggs and want to cycle it in

[@PawsofPrey]

If it's a true allergy, in theory, yes the egg would cause a reaction as well

[@lovingit824]

Are quail eggs good for weight gain? X

We raise ducks, so our dogs get several a week.

[@nogames8982]

The best eggs for my dogs are the ones that comes from the chickens in my backyard.
