Feeding chopped ham loaf

[3riverschick]

I have a couple of small hams made of chopped ham.
They are too salty for me so I thought I would fix them
for the chickens. I know if I slice and braise them in
7up that will draw some of the salt out. Does anyone
know if there is a limit to the saltiness one can give
their birds in meat?
Thanks,
Karen

Salt isn't good for chickens, so if it was too salty for you to begin with I wouldn't give it to the chickens.

ETA- the 7up is also too sugary for them.

Awh nuts. Thought I had found a goodie to give them.
Oh well, will find something else.
Thanks,
Karen

Have you seen the treat chart yet? I'll see if I can find it for you if you haven't.

If you grind it up in a food processor and soak it for 2 days it should be okay. I hate wasting food. I'd find a way to feed it to my birds even if only a small amount at a time. LOL
