Get that GMO free animals and meat from my farmer who is 100% honest on that. He is in PA and twice a month he delivers the product in NJ and NY area. He can UPS in any place.
I got this kind, of the granulated one. since I have a marble mortar and pestle and can grind things to powder myself. http://www.frenchclayforall.com/index.html
well I did add salt to the first mixture I made, perhaps that's why I got constipated.. it hasn't been very easy going since then though, even without having eaten anymore clay, so I think other factors might be involved.
Well uh, I ground up my clay into a powder, then mixed it with water (I only ever drink fiji water, if what the labels on fiji water say is true, then it is the purest most natural water that I can possibly get in my opinion. It is far too smoggy and polluted here, in SoCal, for me to consider using rainwater, and I have never nor will I ever trust tap water, even filtered.) just enough for it to become the texture of like regular clay that you use for molding and firing. I mixed it with my fingers, I don't trust metal utensils anyways but the instructions with the clay say not to use metal anyways because it reacts with the clay. I ground it in a marble mortar and pestle, and mixed it in an either glass bowl, or a plastic so hard that it feels like glass.. I can't tell if these bowls I bought are glass or plastic, and the box didn't say (which makes me suspect they might be plastic) but then one of them broke, it broke just like glass, so.. I don't know.
Anyways, I ate about a spoonful or so of this stuff, right after mixing it, I didn't really let it sit or anything. I ate it first thing in the morning, when my stomach was completely empty, since the night before the only thing i consumed was some water mixed with raw apple cider vinegar. I ate it slowly, first licking the stuff off my fingers since I mixed it with them and it was all over my fingers, then I took out a lump of it and popped it in my mouth, slowly sucking and chewing on it like I would a piece of hard candy or taffy, and making sure to eat it slowly so it wouldn't all be one big lump. Soon afterwards, I got a really bad stomach ache, that eventually got to the point that I felt like puking. I even went to the toilet and hung my head over it waiting to puke, but it's very difficult for me to puke even if I really feel like it and even if I stick my fingers down my throat. I never ended up puking, I just lay in bed curled up, half asleep for a while. The stomach ache didn't go away for a long while, and I was really really hungry since I hadn't eaten for a while either, and finally ended up eating some raw cheese. A little while after eating the cheese I started to feel better, even though I felt like eating it was going to make me want to puke even more, it didn't. It also tasted extremely salty to me, though it is salted cheese, it had never tasted so salty to me before. Though that might be because on the first batch of clay that I made I added a bunch of my himilayan pink salt, but it ended up tasting way too salty for me, so I didnt eat much of it and made a new batch with just pure clay and water.
But it made me feel so sick tht I'm scared to eat it again, I don't know why it made me so nauseated though..
There ends up being a lot of ran over rabbits and squirrels around here, but I'm kind of scared to eat them because I have no idea what they've been eating.. how do I know they haven't been digging through people's trash and eating nasty human food? How do I know the grass they're eating from hasn't been sprayed with toxic chemicals? How do I know that some of the people around here, who find all the rabbits as pests, didn't spray their yard with poison to kill the rabbits? I don't live in the country, there's no forests around here, just a bunch of dry fields lined with roads that people probably throw all their trash into, plus the rodents might be polluted from all the cars that drive around here, with all the toxins I don't see how the animals could even be considered organic, and might all be contaminated with disease from pollution..
Lots of maggot culture information if you google raising maggots bait. For example, this one: http://www.crappie.com/crappie/panfish-bream-brim/65273-raising-maggots-w-little-smell-no-mess.html. I never tried this myself.
What insects are you looking for? I've raised some. Like anything - you have to think about the fact that you will be eating them and not just feeding them to pets or fishing with them - which is what most of them are raised for in the US and therefore - their diets are geared towards making them inexpensive.
Take for instance eggs - I mean those are raised to be eaten by humans and yet the chickens can be fed a horrendous all GM grain diet and sprayed with petroleum.
Like so many things it might be best to raise them yourself and feed them right.
