    Discover the Benefits of Extra Dry Ice

    What is Extra Dry Ice?

    Extra dry ice is a solid form of carbon dioxide that sublimates directly from a solid to a gas at temperatures of -78.5°C (-109.3°F). This remarkable property makes it a superior option for a variety of applications including food preservation, shipping, and even creating stunning visual effects at events. Unlike traditional ice, extra dry ice does not leave a watery residue, which means your products stay dry and ready to use. Whether you’re a business owner needing efficient packaging solutions or just someone planning a fun event, extra dry ice is the perfect choice for high-performance cooling.

    Applications of Extra Dry Ice

    The versatility of extra dry ice allows it to be used in numerous applications. One of the most common uses is in the food industry, particularly for transporting perishables such as seafood, meat, and baked goods. It keeps these items at the perfect temperature during transit, prolonging their freshness. Additionally, extra dry ice is an essential component in laboratories and medical settings for cryogenics or temperature-sensitive samples. Furthermore, it’s used widely in party planning to create fog effects, making events visually enchanting and memorable.

    How to Handle Extra Dry Ice Safely

    While extra dry ice is incredibly useful, it requires careful handling. Always wear gloves or use tongs when touching dry ice, as it can cause severe frostbite upon contact with skin. It's crucial to ensure adequate ventilation when using dry ice in enclosed spaces because it sublimates into carbon dioxide gas, which can displace oxygen. Store extra dry ice in insulated containers to slow down the sublimation process and keep it effective for longer. Proper education and precautions will ensure you benefit from its remarkable properties safely and effectively.

    Feeding Guidelines

    As a general rule, an adult pet should consume about 2-3% of their ideal body weight of Darwin’s raw food per day. Typically, smaller pets should eat a higher percentage of their body weight, while larger pets should eat a lower percentage.

    Our feeding chart can help you see the specific daily amounts based on weight.  This chart is a true for most pets but customers should monitor their pet’s weight to determine if they need to adjust from the recommended amounts.

    Transition Phase

    Adjusting to any new diet takes some time, and it’s important to transition gradually away from what you were feeding before. The very first step to transitioning is understanding that every pet is different.

    Many dogs immediately take to the raw meals, but we recommend starting slowly to allow them to adjust to the new diet. A slower transition may also be needed for pets with sensitive tummies.

     Day 1-3: Start by mixing 25% Darwin's with 75% of your pet's previous food.

    Day 4-6: Half-way through the first week, increase the amount of Darwin's to 50%

    Day 7-9: By week 2, feed mostly Darwin's 

    Day 10: Around day 10, most pets are ready for 100% Darwin's.

    Note that Cats generally transition slower and often need to start with a very small amount of Darwin’s

    FAQs

    Do you offer free shipping?

    Yes! We offer free shipping to most of the US on all orders over 20 lbs.

    Who formulates your recipes?

    Our recipes are formulated with top experts, veterinarians, and veterinary nutritionists. All of our recipes are reviewed and approved by our advisory panel of vets and vet nutritionists.

    Are you ingredients ethically sourced?

    Yes. All of our ingredients are sourced from farms we trust. We visit each farm regularly to ensure not only the quality of the ingredients but to ensure the farm meets are rigorous standards for humane treatment of both staff and animals.

    What's the difference between BioLogics and Natural Selections?

    We strive to make raw feeding as accessible as possible for as many pet parents as possible. We recognize feeding large dogs or a large pack of dogs can be expensive, and so we developed our BioLogics Line.

    BioLogics uses the exact same recipes as our Natural Selections line. Both are complete and balanced for all life stages. Both are minimally processed, biologically-appropriate, and inspired by their ancestral diet. Both use human-grade ingredients only sourced from farms we trust.

    The primary difference is that while Natural Selections uses only antibiotic-free meats and organic vegetables, BioLogics uses conventional ingredients. These farms still meet all of our ethical standards. But sourcing conventional ingredients for our BioLogics recipes allows us to price them about 15% lower than our Natural Selections line, making it a more accessible way to feed raw.
