absolutly ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,( made some for our birds yesterday)  when your doing a sunday type dinner with all the veggies .have a pan on ready with boiling water just drop the peelings ( no onion peelings ) and then bring to a boil and simmer while your doing the rest of the dinner stuff then allow to cool with the water in still just hit it with a rough blender chop and then let it go cold , feed on a old piece of kitchen unit type board, easy cleaned   if your having a lot of veggies etc just cook it then freeze a lump in a an old butter tub .lasts about a month in freezer  
"werks for us ".
oh and if you like you can drop a handful of wheat or barley in the pan when your cooking it

Hi.. as kids, My Dad every Sunday boiled up the vedge waste for the chucks, me brother and I used to have the job of feeding 'em, small bowl full so many days a week.
Dad kept chickens for donkeys years when were kids to suppliment the family income, that is until I chopped me dad's Co-- off , long/old family story  
Bye PAH

My Dad always use to put some porridge oats in with the veg peelings for the last 5 minutes, they cooked in what was left of the water and made it nice a 'porridgey' !!!!!

They yummed them up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just did a few carrot swede and aspagus ends from last night dinner!!

The small took me back about 20 years! and i feel a little better about keeping them in their run today now!!! They'd curn the grass to mud in seconds today!

You need to boil the peelings until they blend into a much that you can mix poultry mash and the like into.
