Inside the chub
The classic prey-model line is built from three parts and nothing else. Here is what each one is doing.
Exceptions, stated plainly: Beginner’s Choice runs 75/15/10 and suits puppies and active adults. Green Tripe is a single-ingredient topper, not a complete meal. Tex’s Beef Prey Model Plus is a fortified "Prey Model Plus" formula with an added vitamin, mineral, and fruit blend and a 3:1 calcium-to-phosphorus ratio.

How much to feedHow It Works
Mix proteins in one order. Everything stays in the freezer until the box is packed, and you get tracking as soon as it leaves.
Flat $25 to California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Nevada and Arizona, however big the order. Boxes leave packed for transit and are meant to arrive frozen or still firm. Move them to your freezer as soon as the box lands.
Move one chub to the fridge 24 hours ahead. Serve, wash the bowl, done. A thawed chub keeps 2–3 days refrigerated.
Reviews

“Brodie absolutely loves Texas Tripe from Redtail Pet Food! We’ve noticed some great benefits, including a shinier coat, healthier-looking teeth, and improved digestion and weight management, too. His favorite blends are the All-Star Bully Blend and the Duck & Rabbit Blend.”

“Feeding Raw over Kibble is 100% the way to go, but in my opinion, feeding a quality raw is even better. I am thrilled we have a Texas Tripe distributor that is local and has excellent knowledge of this product.”

“I am so impressed with the raw dog food I’ve been getting. I have two golden retrievers, and one is 13 ½, and this food has completely changed his life. The vet told me he was the healthiest senior dog he’s seen. My two dogs don’t seem famished at mealtime anymore, and I attribute that to their good nutrition. My dogs’ weight is perfect, and they have great energy levels. Thank you, All Star Bully”

“When our breeder suggested a fresh, raw diet for our new puppy, I was totally overwhelmed. I’d fed kibble my whole life! But honestly, using Texas Tripe chubs has been an absolute breeze. It adds maybe two extra minutes to prepare individually curated meals for all four of our dogs.”

“Sally has tried the Bully Blend, Wolf Run, Pork, Tex’s Beef, and the Turkey Blends; she's loved them all! She has had absolutely zero health issues. Her digestion is incredibly consistent, with regular healthy poops, and she has the softest, shiniest coat. She is happy, healthy, and absolutely loves her meals.”

“What a difference RedTail's variety of raw meats has made in the lives of our two senior dogs. Mealtime is less stressful. The positive changes in weight, mobility, alertness, and decreased inflammation were quick. We have peace of mind, and the results speak for themselves. We are grateful.”

“A few months after switching to raw food, I noticed a dramatic increase in Jasper's energy. Denali has thrived on the raw food diet and loves mealtime. He is the perfect picture of a healthy, happy, and astronomically energetic dog. Today, both dogs have healthy, shiny coats that feel much less wiry, and Jasper's curls have even returned. Their digestion has also improved significantly.”

“Her breeder recommended this food. Before, we used a national brand fresh cooked that was about double the cost and really high in carbs. Our dog loves this food; you can tell by the happy dance she does at mealtimes. She also has so much more energy. I would give this food a 10 out of 10.”

“Everyone at the office compliments my dog on her coat.”
Questions
The prey-model blends are built to whole-animal ratios rather than to an AAFCO nutrient profile, which is why rotation across proteins matters: it broadens the nutrient base. AAFCO nutrient profiles are built around highly refined, commercially processed kibble, which is less bioavailable than raw food. If you want a single fortified formula with added vitamins and minerals, Tex’s Beef Prey Model Plus is the one to look at. All Texas Tripe blends are laboratory-tested for nutritional content. When in doubt, review your dog’s diet with your vet.
Go gradually over about nine days: start at roughly ¼ raw to ¾ current food and shift the ratio by ¼ every few days. Some owners prefer separate meals rather than mixing. Expect smaller, firmer stools. If stools go loose, slow down; if they go chalky and hard, the blend may be high in bone. Add tripe or move to a lower-bone blend.
Beginner’s Choice or Beef Blend. Both are beef-forward, single-protein-dominant, and easy on a new digestive system. Add Green Tripe as a topper if your dog needs convincing. Very few dogs turn it down.
