I leave the skin on, because they do need some skin and fat as part of their balanced raw diet.

Next time- hold it. With very enthusiastic eaters holding it at first means you can teach them to have to crunch it all properly and prevent them from pulling off bits that are too big or doing silly things like wanting to swallow all the skin at once

Thats great that one of your boys loved it and had no runny poo as a result, fantastic!
