I'm about out of dried blood and my source for it seems to have dried up. I'm needing to make some more Backbreaker, and am in need of some dried blood. It makes a great thickener. Its attractive to the cats and canines and doesn't bother the beavers.

You talking about blood meal? Thought every nursery around kept that on stock.

The stuff I got was in bulk and all it said on the side of the bags was Dried Blood, 50 Lbs.

Does blood meal have additives in it, or is it plain dried blood? I'd hate to screw up a batch of lure using something that is way different than what I've been successful with.

I've seen it at the feed store ... bag was maybe 10 pounds

you got me wondering if it is a difference between blood meal and "dried blood" ... I'm of the thinking they are the same ... or derived from the same process and origin/source ???

check with ol' scruffy (the fella between Barney and Buzzy)

I cant donate my blood cause I had Hepatitus as a kid in Spain.....

how many pints ya need to get your dried stuff ? You can have some of mine....

LOL Buzzy, I would rather purchased some already done. I imagine its like fish oil - messy to make and cheaper in the long run to buy.

lol lmao I know buzzy blood has various additives! might be worth a try though ... aint no tellin what kind of reaction response you'll get from it

buzzy he'll need a few gallons not pints to make it worth while ... keep the lids on the buckets tight

try the local funeral home..

pay local kids to pick their scabs for ya...

I found both at our local feed store. The bags I remember seeing were 10 pounders they may have the 50's too just did,nt notice

Most of the dried blood I have worked with comes from Pharmecutical or Ag. sources. All the material I have gotten is Bovine derived material which is dried cow blood.Blood is a good additive but I prefer dried plasma best as a thickening agent as it goes further and binds more quickly.

Spent a few minutes on yahoo search and all I came up with is this http://www.merrifieldgardencenter.com/products.php?pid=99022437&&dealer=merrifield
The only others I found were meal not pure dried blood

Call Perdue. They put it in chicken feed I think and surely they sell their "guts stuff" to someone.

Rendering plants may have it.Saw many of tankers heading to Valley protiens with nothing but chicken blood in them.I worked at Weavers chicken,now Tyson chicken in the early 80s on sanitation.One of my jobs was squegging jelled chicken blood out of the killing room into hoppers that goes right into tankers destine for Valley Protiens rendering plant.They made products out of dead stuff there.

We sell dried blood meal at work ill see if they have an ingredient list on the bag and let you know what it says tomorrow if the question still exists.

Paul, the tag on the bag I have says mfg for American Midwest Dist. N. Kansas city, Mo. It seems that the company that makes it is in S. Dakota, if I remember right from searching the web. I get it from an ag service store locally.

I got some blood meal from (bonide) 12-0-0 from the co-op that I've had sitting in water for 2 years and it has not dissolved yet. lol

Paul, you got a "per order limit" on Backbreaker? I think Id bettr go on and get some...lol
