Raw Diet - Info Needed

[abbie's mom]

LOL...it just does. And, as Kellie stated - if left long enough it will dry up and blow away. It's biodegradable. There is less waste in RAW, so Chloe's system uses it. With kibble/commercial, there is more (smelly, I might add) waste. I don't know the scientific reason it turns white. Kellie...Lara....??

stop picking it up. in a few days look in your yard and see if you see a difference. you probably will and it will be a good difference

I don't pick up Mo's poo, as he goes outside. But, Abigail is trained to paper inside, so hers' is picked up w/the papers.

Yup its perfectly normal for it to turn white after a few hours, its the left over bone after they have taken what they need from it. Its how they should be, wild dogs don't go round with the poop a scoop in order to clean the nest

ok my answer was suppose to be funny....

Poops turns white because of the calcium in the bone and all the other "organic" left overs. Everything in it is natural, unlike kibble poop.
