RAW EGG OR BOILED ?

[tagteamz]

WHICH WAY IS BETTER TO FEED ? READ RAW WITH THE SHELL I DO RAW WITHOUT THE SHELL

[FACE203]

Boiled for about 2-2 1/2... Shell and all

[ZeroCool]

boiled with no shell...


and if you feed the shell, make sure you know the source of where you get the eggs. because alot of supermarkets have the outside of the shell sprayed with preservatives.. thats chemicals going in the dogs system.

Technically, soft-boiled is best, with the shell. (ZeroCool brings up a good point about potential artificial elements, so just avoid buying eggs from "high-volume" producers like that.)

The reason soft-boiled is best (which is where the white is cooked, but the yolk is still liquid) is because the white albumen possesses a peculiar nature where it is harder to digest in its raw state than cooked; so cooking makes it better-assimilated by the dog. And yet the yolk is more nutritious raw than cooked.

Therefore, as Face203 suggests, boiling an egg for 2+ min will induce a "soft-boiled" state, which is the most nutritious way to eat eggs, and you feed "with the shell" to add calcium.

INTERESTING, I've always done raw with the shell. I'll have to switch it up to soft boiled with the shell. Thanks for the posts you guys.
