Feeding Flowers kittens

Well most of Flowers kittens are eating wet food and dry food,I have 1 though that took a fondness to raw meat(i give raw meat to my other cats).
The difference with this kitten and my cats eating it she got really mean,like attacking my fingers or hissing at me when i tried to take it away.
Should i let her eat raw meat when it is out,or just keep the kittens away totally?The rest took a small nibble just to taste but nothing more.
I used to feed raw but now i am in the process of switching back(just waiting for my meat delivery).

If you are going to feed meet to baby kittens you need to make sure it is cut up fine and has no hard bits or lumps of fat. I cut my kittens meat up fine until they are 14 weeks old and can start to have it in larger chunks. Some might say it's good for their teeth to chew it - but my late friend had a kitten choke on meat at 8 weeks old so I take no risks. Always surpervise them eating the meat too.

And yes kittens do go crazy over raw beef It's not uncommon for them to growl, snarl and go crazy - all mine do it when they first start eating raw beef.

It really caught me off guard because none of my other cats or the other kittens did it.The meat i cut up is really small and thin pieces.I always supervise feeding times anyway because i want to see which kittens are actually eating solids food,only 2 are still not eating.
