After a week of feeding the pre-packaged raw and no issues, I decided to try adding in the chicken backs for their dinner tonight. Boy did they love it! Roxy got down and dirty! Savage like knawing and "killing" and ripping! ROFL. But she was wonderful, I separated them and stood in between just in case but neither one of them even thought about going after the other's food. They both figured out pretty quickly to keep their food on their special blankies, seeing as there was a bunch of gunk and blood. Hades was a bit reluctant at first, just licked a lot, but seemed to pick up on using his back molars to grind and bite the bone. They were both begging for more when they were done!

So far I haven't seen any runny poos and I fed them about 4-5 hours ago, so we'll see how the poopies look tomorrow. If the chicken backs go over well, how often should I be feeding them with the pre-packaged diet? Twice a week?(As in two meals per week, or can I do more?)

How long should I be waiting until I introduce the chicken necks I got, or any other type of raw meat?

And I know this question seems silly, but after I thaw out the meat, can I keep it in the fridge? Or do I have to use it right away?

Congrats!!
Remember there will be a lot less poop with raw.
I started Summer on chicken and just went from there, every few days trying something different. No real method, and it worked just fine. I don't use prepared, so I can't answer that, sorry.
But when I thaw in the fridge, I just feed her as I would the rest of my family, I would not give her old meat, but a few days is okay.
