Haha, Julie! I've actually starting forgetting some things. I really should start researching again.
I generally fed 2.5% of their body weight. Sometimes more, sometimes less.
I'd switch cold turkey. A lot of raw feeders say that mixing kibble with raw food is a big no-no cause they take different amounts of time to digest.
Feed whatever way you're most comfortable with. Not all meals have to be balanced. The idea is to feed a balanced diet over a period of time. When I fed raw, I mixed veggies with muscle meat for breakfast and RMB's, eggs, organs and such for dinner. But it's perfectly fine to feed one meal full of veggies and fruits and one meal with meat and bones. Whichever way works for you.
You don't HAVE to add supplements. Some do, some don't. I didn't but I probably will once we feed raw again.
I love our vet. He isn't against it or for it. He's completely neutral and only provides the information I need.
I wouldn't put my hopes up too high though. This isn't a miracle diet so Jasper may not get better. It varies. Kai and Kaedyn did very well on it. I'm dying to put them back on but we can't afford a much needed second freezer.
Cali knows a lot more about the diet than I do. Cloverfdx will probably be able to give you some good pointers too.
