apple seeds in the compost pile

[Bird Worrier]

We let our chickens work our compost pile. But we also eat a lot of apples which means the chickens may eat the apple seeds. Should we de-seed all of our apple cores before putting them in the compost pile?

No, it’d take a massive amount of apple seeds to hurt your chickens.

That's a relief. Thank you!

Agreed, I have a small orchard, includes apple trees and cherries . Never had an issue. I can tell you they eat a large amount of whole apples.

This makes me feel much better. Thank you!!
