Help! Chickens ate unknown fruit :0

Thank you so much! I really appreciate all of your time.



Could I put it in the freezer to speed thing up? ;)
:gigsorry, just thought that was funny. Prob not, as they may need the rest of the summer to "finish", but I'm no expert. I just got one of those from the master gardener sale this spring and it has nothing on it yet. If you can do that I'd like to know too!
 
Rumor has it that chickens are edible :oops:

Although I've noticed mine work very hard at playing up their pet qualities and playing down playing their tasty qualities... and if one of them catches me looking hungry they just step in some poop or something and I'm over it... I think they have me figured out ;)

btw, it was the "criss cross" bark in your photos that clued me in to it being a persimmon.... I saw your lone star location and just googled 'texas persimmon' and voila!
Mine tend to play the pet card too. The are setting up the stray cats I think. Lol
 
Ok I ate one,
Then another and another soon I lost count and had not left any for the chickens :oops:

They are good and sweet the outside is firming like a plum and the inside texture is like a tomato. But they are very sweet and loaded with raisin size seeds. Even one the size of a blueberry had 2. Seeds in it. God knows what he is doing but I gotta say the seeds did not seem to slow me down any. :gig

I think I found 8 more trees as well :fl

Thank you all so much
 
Your chickens are probably mad at us for telling you they're edible lol! Oh well, they got a few before you found out.:lau
