Chicken legs in Ensenada
Does anyone know where one can buy large packs of chicken legs in Ensenada?
We tried Costco before with no luck. Most of the checken legs we have found in Mexico have the thigh attached and we want just the legs and need the
large packs as we use 5 to 6 a day.
Thanks
Diane

El Roble - they have 2 stores, one at 6th & Miramar, the other on Estado 29. Take Cortez to Mexico. Right on Mexico, first left is Estado 29.
About 2 blocks up on your left hand side.

When we bought whole chickens in Guatemala, they had the head still on the neck stuffed inside. I was not prepared for that and the first time I saw
it, I woke up the entire neighborhood with my scream. 
Thanks Keri---I will check this out. Do you or Bajabound remember the approximate price for the legs? We buy so many, but we have very healthy and
happy dogs.

You can find, at most any grocery store with a meat department, chicken feet. Saw them yesterday at Calimax all wrapped up and priced just like any
other cut.
I don't know what they do with them nor do I care to know. I've seen where chickens walk.
Actually, I think they throw them into stew type concoctions.

Thread titles always get me. I was thinking we had a new Nomad in Ensenada (like Longlegs in La Paz).

Well, I was going to mention the Santerķa application but, I wasn't sure how they were used.
I once bought a little package of Black Salt from a Black Magic shop in town. You had to secretly toss a small pinch of the stuff at the feet of a
"bad neighbor" and his life would turn to suffering and misfortune. Don't know how but, it spilled from my pocket all over my flip-flops as I was
taking a leak at Sharky's. Wonder if.....hmmmmmm......

We don't make dog food, we just feed the raw chicken legs to our dogs---along with some other items. They have really thrived on a mainly raw
diet----we think it is one reason why our Maggie has recovered from knee surgery a lot faster than expected---the Vet is quite amazed at her progress.
Two things.
1. Chicken bones are dangerous to dogs when they are cooked, but ok when they are raw. And the bones keep their teeth in great shape, and their
poop is easy to deal with----turns white and dries up in a day or two.
2. Yes, our dogs are very spoiled.

Actually, Dennis was more than close. Besides the raw chicken legs, we do cook some chicken and other things to feed our dogs as side dishes for
their raw chicken legs.
