PART 1
Take four boneless chicken breasts and place in a medium size pan of boiling water for 15 minutes. Save and include liquid. Run all contents through an ice crushing capable blender until you are able to run it smooth on 'liquefy.' Add two full tubes of FerretVite or Nutri-Cal, 1/2 cup FerreTone, and 4 tablespoons olive oil.
Now obtain, and prepare the following. This is what saved my guys along with the antibiotic therapy. Recipe courtesy of Dee Harris (Aukukas).
