Christian Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Try them with a small amount first and see if they like it. As with any treat, not too often or it will upset their tummies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginny Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I gave some to my chickens, they had a bit of a peck at it but didn't seem to like it much. It won't do them any harm so you could see if yours like cucumber, if they don't want it they won't eat it. Ginny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennydavies Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 If I put a big piece of cue tied to the fence, they ignore it - if I chop it up nice and small and put it with some sweetcorn, tomato, apple etc. they wolf it down. It doesn't upset their tummies and there's never any left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebC Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 My first girls wouldn't eat cucumber. The current lot will eat anything! Strange how they are all different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
