| STORAGE ADVICE | To maintain the freshness and quality of veal bones, it is recommended to store them in the refrigerator at a temperature of 40°F (4°C) or below. Place the veal bones in an airtight container or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap to prevent exposure to air and odors. Properly stored, veal bones can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days. If you wish to extend their shelf life, you can also freeze the bones. Wrap them in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe container or bag. Frozen veal bones can maintain their quality for approximately 3-4 months. When ready to use, thaw the bones in the refrigerator before incorporating them into your desired recipes. |
| PACKAGING | This pack contains 1kg of Veal Bones. Your item will arrive in a 100% recycled box lovingly packed with FSC-certified shredded spruce from Britain and Sweden, natural sheep’s wool insulation and non-toxic chilled gel packs, all of which can be reused, composted or recycled. To recycle the gel packs, simply cut a corner and dispose of the contents through your normal domestic waste system, as the gel isn’t harmful to the environment. Better still, reuse them by storing in the freezer and chilling other products. The only component from our packaging that can’t be recycled are the foil liners which need to be go in household waste; the poly bags meat comes in needs to go in plastic recycling. |

If you’re looking to prepare veal bones for your pet, you can follow these cooking instructions:
- Preheat your oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to preheat while you prepare the bones.
- Choose fresh veal bones: Select fresh veal bones from a trusted source. It’s important to ensure they are suitable for consumption and haven’t been treated with any harmful substances.
- Clean the bones: Rinse the bones under cool water to remove any dirt or debris. You can use a brush to gently scrub them if necessary.
- Optional boiling step (recommended): To further clean the bones and remove any impurities, you can briefly boil them in a large pot of water. Bring the water to a boil, add the bones, and simmer for around 10 minutes. Discard the water afterward.
- Place the bones on a baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Arrange the veal bones on the baking sheet, leaving some space between them.
- Bake the bones: Place the baking sheet with the bones in the preheated oven. Let them cook for approximately 30-45 minutes, or until they become golden brown and crispy. This cooking time may vary depending on the size and thickness of the bones.
- Cool the bones: Once the bones are cooked, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely. It’s essential to let them cool down before giving them to your pet to prevent any burns or discomfort.
- Serve to your pet: After the bones have cooled down, you can offer them to your pet. It’s best to supervise your pet while they chew on the bones and ensure they don’t swallow large or sharp pieces that could pose a choking hazard. Remember that veal bones should be given as a treat or recreational chew item and not as a primary food source.
- Proper storage: If you have leftover bones, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They should be consumed within a few days to maintain freshness.
Always consult with your veterinarian before introducing new foods or treats into your pet’s diet, as individual dietary needs can vary based on breed, age, and health conditions.
