| I don't know if it will work for cats, but it's just chicken, that's it! I wouldn't think it would be harmful. I wonder if you could try the same procedure with salmon? Salmon jerkey...hmmmm. Just a thought.

| That's an excellent idea--- might be a shorter time as it would dry out quicker? |

| Chicken Jerky Today I gave the Chicken Jerky recipe a shot. I used only one chicken breast just in case it didn't come out and I have to tell you that Gucci loves it! I was worried that it might be too hard, but it isn't. Looks just like the strips in the store. I think I might have a chance at training Gucci to come to me now! |

| Prince just finished the first bunch (one chicken breast). I plan to fix 3 breasts this week and freeze. I'll keep 3-4 in the fridge.

| How many pieces were you able to make? Were they chewy and easy to break apart? I was thinking about making them and breaking them into small pieces and putting it in their treat jar to use as treats.

| Yes, they are pretty chewy...they're the same texture as the store bought, but of course, without the worries. Depending on how thin you slice them, you'll probably get abought 10-13 per chicken breast. I'm doing his second batch right now, but I've sliced 2 breasts this time, to save gas. They freeze well.

| Have you tried it yet? I'll probably make some more this weekend. I wonder how turkey breast would turn out?

| Do you slice them when they are partially frozen? Sounds like you get a lot out of one breast. |

| No, I didn't slice them when they were partially frozen, but, that is a good idea. I think it would slice easier that way...I'll try that next time. Yes, you do get a lot from one breast because they are sliced so thin. What do yo think about the turkey breask jerky? Or even beef jerky, although I think the chicken and turkey would be healthier. I try do at least two breast (chicken) at a time, since I have to keep my oven on so long.

| I made one breast and my dogs love them! I actually only had to keep them in for 2 hours.

| Yes, I've been dehydrating meat for Bailey for over a year now. Its great!! I was scared of the China thing too. So, I bought a dehydrator (approx $65). I rotate the trays every hour - and they're done in about 4 hours. I dehydrate turkey, beef and venison. I haven't tried chicken yet - but I will do some this weekend!!!

| Thanks for the recipe I will try it in a day or 2. My hubby make cookies for the babies this week end and they love them. I took a pack of chicken hearts and gizzards and a container of chicken livers. Boiled them on the top of the store then put them in the oven water and all until they fell apart. He then mixed in some oatmeal and dropped them by tea spoon full on pan and baked. They looked just like oatmeal cookies LOL the dogs love them.
