Can chickens eat figs?

[Chef JimmyJ]

I have never eaten a fresh fig. How are they different than the dried ones you buy in the store? (Besides the obvious)
Are you growing them in your yard?

As different as a Grape is from a Raisin. Fresh Ripe Figs are tender, really sweet with, as accurately described by Mossychick, a Jelly inside. The flavor is similar but less concentrated. In Northern PA I have to Buy them, so only Thieving Chickens will ever taste one! Fig Gravy with Port or Madeira Wine is amazing over Roast Pork or Chops...JJ

They are very high in sugar like grapes so in moderation, but like others, I’ve never been in a situation with two fig trees, between rats and squirrels that I have any figs to spare!
