QuickSilver, just to give you an idea (this is probably what kibble would look like pre processed - tons of grain for most brands). Ellie is supposed to get around 2/3 cup of rice per day. She is 5-6 pounds, so that sounds like a ton. But her diet is still 28% protein. It's just lower in fat, so more carbs had to be added for calories.
What protein does Ellie get with her rice?
