Will these and the seeds be ok for my chickens, raw?

When I have thrown in parts of a squash before they eat the seeds and fleshy bits but leave the skin - try them and see...

I used to scoop out the seeds and 'spaghetti' before roasting the squash and the bantams loved the 'middles'. I used to put the squash innards in the run in the morning and then remove anything they'd not eaten when I went to shut them in so as not to attract rats etc overnight.

Mine won’t eat butternut squash.  I’ve tried the innards, the ‘spaghetti’ the peel, big chunks, little chunks, even a whole one cut in half lengthwise.  But they love courgettes, especially ones that look like marrows! And cucumber and melon.  But not butternut!  WHY? WHY?WHY?

I’ll let you know tomorrow, mine are like their owner and tend to eat anything 😂😂

Well, they ate the lots except the skins!

Tried them on celeriac peelings and they ate the lot including the skin!
