Raw breeders - carb cravings?

I've noticed an increase in Kaynya's desire for carbs. Ok, she always likes the cheapo dog biscuits I buy but now she's begging for them.

Anyone had their raw-fed pregnant bitch crave carbs? What did you give her?

I'm thinking that sweet potatoes would be a good choice.

This morning I shared some of my oatmeal with her.

I really can't say I've noticed carb specific cravings. More just generalized cravings for anything that isn't nailed down and looks even remotely edible.

We use the cheapo dog biscuits as treats too and haven't noticed the prego bitches being more interested in those or anything else high-carb than they are other things, or than they are normally. Though they're high food drive to begin with and love the doggy junkfood cheapo dog treats anyway, so would be hard to tell the difference between their usual 'will do backflips for treats' vs prego 'will do backflips for treats'.
