Emergency Food Rations Recycling

[bertio]

Hi Folks,
Can anyone tell me if I can feed my chickens the Emergency food blocks that came out of our Earthquake cabinet?
The pressed semi crumbly blocks are made of wheat , Oats, Palm oil sugar, and a few other caloric items. They're free of chemicals and other crap and are sealed in vacuum bags. I ate a few bars myself and it's really bland, if not totally disgusting.

I didn't want to feed it to the girls (untested on humans.)
The only thing that gives it any taste is the sugar. I'm wondering about the sugar. I wouldn't want to contribute to my chickens getting diabetes. Anyone know if it's ok to feed it to them? I hate to throw $800 worth of Emergency food out. They love the stuff!

Thanks.

I don't see why not. I've personally never heard of a chicken getting diabetes, but then again I'm not the most qualified person when it comes to chicken treats.

My chickens will literally eat anything and everything they can get their mouths on. If my chickens can survive eating styrofoam, I don't see why not feed them this

LOL!! My chickens survived eating styrofoam as well! It was actually shelter wrapon the outside of our house!
