Well, I know a little bit, and I'll see what I can do to help.. but I'm not an expert.

How important are fruits & veggies? I am planning to feed them daily, but, have also read that you don't need to. Also, should veggies be bought fresh on a regular basis, or can I put it through the food processor and freeze it in portions? Some people give them once a week, some people don't include them at all. Not sure about the 2nd part..

Eggshells. I have tried, occasionally, putting an egg(with shells) over Jasper's food. He loves egg, but will spit out the shell. Is it fine to give eggs without the shell, or should I just crush it up? I give my dogs the eggs without the shell, but it's okay to blend the shell, and add it, too.

Last one I've read, over and over, that you dont need to feed a balanced meal everyday. Is this true? Does this mean no veggies everyday? That somedays I can feed raw meat with less nutrition/calcium(such as leg quarters, etc.)? Not sure, but you don't have to feed Veggies everyday.

I would also love if someone could list the best staples for a raw diet, and other things fed for variety. The best thing to start with? I'm sure I can find most of that else where, so it's not as necessary. Well, best thing to start with from what I've learned is chicken. As for the 1st part, I can't help too much.. :/

I hope I've helped you a little bit. I've been doing alot of research ^^.
