Ange1 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) I've heard a few people on here mention that they give their girls any of hte above, I just wandered what people feed their girls? I'm shopping tomorrow and I was going to pick up a value pack of one of them, but I'm not sure which to get, maybe theirs no difference?! I've always been confused between them!

chucknette Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Hi Mine love sultanas. I think they seem a lot softer than the currants. Although you could probably soak them for a while. If they hear the bag rustle they come running but I expect they would come running for a bin liner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I go for sultanas or raisins too, mainly because they are juicier. Mind you, i tend not to have currants in the cupboard that often anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ange1 Posted June 19, 2008 Author Share Posted June 19, 2008 I did put Raisins on as an option but I don't think I pressed the 'add' button! Are currants the little harder ones then?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I did put Raisins on as an option but I don't think I pressed the 'add' button! !

Lapinou Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Don't know about our chickens but can tell you that sultanas are paler and squishier than the others and also a tiny bit bigger than raisins (I prefer them!); raisins are black and juicy; currants are black but smaller than raisins and sultanas.

superjules Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I always thought raisins were red grapes and sultanas were white - but I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lapinou Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I think you're right - but what are sultanas then? Why do they end up so much smaller than the other two I wonder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
