Porkypie Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Does anyone else use these to hang up cabbage, greens etc in? I was thinking about doing so but wanted to check there wouldn't be any problems with using one - can you think of any problemos?? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I think as long as they don't break the string and start eating that, it should be OK . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing cloud Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I use two of them all the time and have had no problems at all (except my greedy girlies would like more!) . Eventually the string gives up at the bottom and I replace them with new ones. They are great for cabbages, spring greens, lettuces, apples etc - anything you'd rather they didn't roll round in the mud and poo before they ate it .

Porkypie Posted March 21, 2010 Author Share Posted March 21, 2010 Ooooo, sounds great! Dancing Cloud, where do you get yours from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing cloud Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I get mine from here:- http://www.organic-ally.co.uk/madness.html Mine are tied round the handle of a dustbin lid and round the run mesh. Even using two at a time with my greedy-beaks, 10 will last at least a year (and I've given a couple to other people as well). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porkypie Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 I get mine from here:- http://www.organic-ally.co.uk/madness.html Thanks, I've just placed an order Do you throw whole apples in there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing cloud Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 You certainly can put whole apples in, but my little monkeys won't eat them whole, they have to be cut in half so they can see the inner part . The apple halves go in the bags along with all the leaves/lettuces/cabbage halves. Now I think of it, they're definitely better fed than I am!

Luvachicken Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Can chickens eat the pips from an apple ? I know that they contain something bad that rabbits can't have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
