Pumpkin Guts

[dixie&trixie]

Probably a stupid question but...

Halloween is right around the corner so are pumpkin guts okay to give my girls?

Yes. Pumpkin and guts will be appreciated.

I got a HUGE pumpkin this year. Lots of guts and seeds and my 10 ladies went bonkers.

My birds will fight you for a pumpkin. Especially the guts.

My chickens won't touch the pumpkin. Not even the seeds.

I give my chickens one pumpkin a week while they're in stores. They're supposedly good at preventing worms, as well.

My girls love pumpkin guts, but only if they are removed from the pumpkin entirely. They won't touch the pumpkin with a ten foot pole. In fact, they seem to like the pumpkin guts the best if I microwave them for a minute or so to partially cook them.

Just don't treat the pumpkin with anything (somefolks spray/smear stuff on to keep the pumpkin from rotting so fast). Don't feed them areas that have wax etc. either.

I take a shovel and chop a pumpkin in half and the girls love it. This time of year I give them at least one big one a week.

I left the one pumpkin I managed to grow as ornamentation near my coop and my guineas/chickens HACKED through it (it was not carved) and demolished the entire pumpkin, seeds and all. I could see peck marks in the few pieces they left - took only about two days for them to eat it all!
