So, I finally found a place that sells green tripe.
(And cheap fatty beef!!)But I'm wondering, how much do you guys pay for your tripe? I got a 5lb tube of it for $4.60. Is that a good price?? Also, how much should I feed to a 50lb adult? Just a spoonful at each meal orrrr?? |

It is a great price, if it is good quality(good quality tripe
) I pay over $2 a # and sometimes the consistancy isn't the same. I've recently been ordering it course grind as the nutritional benefits are not broken down so much.As far as portions, I don't think you can over feed tripe. I give a heaping spoonful each meal, because I want to stretch it farther. Which reminds me, I have to order more.... Last edited by onyx'girl; 06-08-2011 at 08:27 PM. |

I pay just over $5 for a 2 lbs. tube for greentripe and about $7 for Xkaliber. I feed it once a week, split in morning and evening, or I will feed the whole 2 lbs. in the evening, it just depends.
The greentripe I get is from greentripe.com

I have gotten tripe from 3 places. The first was about 2.25/lb...more than I liked to pay so it was just an occasional treat. The second place was about 1.50 so more affordable. The last place I got it for .66/lb (60 lb case = $40). I bought a lot and have been feeding a lot!
There was a great article on Tripe from the Whole Dog Journal a while back - here is the link. Green Tripe Article - page 1 of 5 |

Thanks for sharing that link! I used to get our greentripe shipped directly to me from Mary Voss (greentripe.com) when we lived in CA. Thankfully, we have a dealer here in DFW.
