ladyjulian Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I have a quiche in the fridge - shop bought cheese and tomato - which is a few days past its use by date. I'm probably not going to eat it, would it be safe to feed to the chickens, or would that be risky? They'll quite happily eat sad looking vegetables, potato peelings, and so on, but I'm not so sure about processed food, so I'm turning to Omlet wisdom!

Looney Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I would feed quiche to my girls although perhaps not all the pastry.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Its not great on a day to day basis but may well be ok as a one off They dont tolerate lactose very well and cant have onions I believe but I expect they would demolish it with no regard for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyjulian Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 They might get an Easter treat then - I really don't like the idea of wasting it but I'm working my way through a large amount of leftover roast lamb, which they're not getting!

Alis girls Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 My friend has 5-6 chucks and we were in her garden last yr about to devour Boursin and french bread when the phone rang and she said "put the kettle on whilst I anser phone" I got up to do that and 5-6 pairs of beedy eyes looked at me - i sat down again and waited till she got back New ad for Boursin "le Boursin - le fille (ie me) les poulets (them) le fin " and a clip of 5-6 hens devouring the feast. They obviously thought I was a sucker - oh no I could see their plan - comes of livng with 2 cats who are gannets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
