can I feed watermelon and cantelope to my chickens?

 

[KandJsmama]

I do, they love them.

Yep

I cut them in half (or qtrs), freeze them and give it to them on really hot days....they love it

I try to, but Fred, my mini horse beats them to it.

Yep. it's good for them. I have peafowl separated in several pens, what I do is slice them up like bread.. this way is also good in preventing them from getting flipped over on skin side up. They won't eat the outside skin.

 

[MSBG]

thank you all very much! I always worry about what they can eat, I don't want to make them sick.

Mine always go for the seeds and "goop" in the middle of the cateloupe. The seeds are slippery and they chase them all over the backyard. Uh hello, the good stuff is the meaty flesh, not the seeds!

Frame that picture, Hollywood! Wait, it is.

GREAT picture!
