This is an interesting article Jeff found on "real" food. We both thought this sums up nicely while we spend so much time making our own food ... better for the planet and better for us....win win!

Cleaning The Pen- Winter Time (Round II)
Today was the second time this winter that we had to clean their pen. We learned some painful lessons from our experience cleaning the pen the first time the weather prevented us from leaving the girls outside (see the post here). While last time was rather dramatic, this go around we put the girls right into dog carrier while we cleaned. It took us about a half an hour and the entire time the girls were surprisingly mellow. We barely heard a peep as we cleaned. I was blown away! We were worried that after more than a few minutes in the carrier and they would start the flip out. Even more amazingly, they didn't poop in the carrier. This new act of shocking maturity was rewarded with several pieces of spaghetti.
While we were cleaning, Jeff brought up the good point that since they no longer have access to dirt that perhaps we should build them some sort of dust bath. He does bring up a good point. We are thinking about getting them a box with play sand.
