I home cook and only use Bison. I'd love to find wild game such as venison and rabbit.
Chicken is still just a thought/idea.

But when I fed Acana Chricken (Prairie Harvest) he was chewing his feet and stuff.
INGREDIENTS
Chicken meal, russet potato, fresh free-run chicken, peas, chicken fat (preserved with mixed tocopherals and rosemary), fresh walleye, pumpkin, fresh whole eggs, sun-cured alfalfa leaf, fresh northern Lake Whitefish, chicken cartilage (a natural source of glucosamine and chondroitin), red delicious apples, carrots, turnip greens, organic kelp, organic bladderwrack, organic dulse, juniper berries, cranberries, Saskatoon berries, angelica root, chicory root, red clover, red raspberry leaf, dandelion root, peppermint leaf, marigold flowers, chamomile flowers, rosemary extract, Enterococcus faecium.

When I fed Acana Lamb (Grasslands) he did not scratch his body & chew his feet.
INGREDIENTS
Lamb meal, sweet potato, raw de-boned lamb, peas, fresh whole eggs, sun-cured alfalfa, sunflower oil, fresh de-boned walleye, pumpkin, fresh de-boned nothern pike, apples, carrots, turnip greens, organic sea vegetables (kelp, bladderwrack, dulse), juniper berries, cranberries, saskatoon berries, black currants, angelica root, chicory root, red clover, red rasberry leaf, dadelion root, peppermint leaf, marigold flowers, chamomile flowers, rosemary extract, lactobacillus acidophilus, entercoccus faecium.

I can read all the natural ingredients in Acana.
No weird stuff in it
It took about 3 weeks to finish each bag.
I love Acana. But it is hard to get at times (sold out) and the kibble size is so big the boys swallow it instead of chewing it.
