I know its illegal to feed food watse to chickens but can I still feed my chickens veg thats not been in my kitchen, or indeed food that is not waste ? so confoosed :blink:
-
any fruit and veg that has not been in a kitchen whether that be domestic or commercial can be fed to your bird - which is why mine get apples off my trees, sweetcorn on the cob, strawberries etc. Never give them raw potatoes.
-
So...... if I buy a bag of apples and keep them in my shed I can feed them to the girls, but if I have some leaves off cabbage that I am going to cookj I cant???? or am I just being obtuse??? :wub: :wub:

obtuse? no, I'd say a bit argumentative ;) ..." but I pulled the leaves off before I brought the cabbage into the kitchen, honestly officer ::)

But surely you remove the leaves you're not going to use from the cabbage before you take it into the kitchen? - you pick them off on your way back from the allotment.. ..
If it doesn't go into the kitchen it isn't kitchen waste.

My understanding of the law regarding kitchen scraps/ waste is that leftovers from plates that may have been in contact with meat products is a no no (as during the war ALL leftovers were given to backyard animals cooked, half eaten etc) whereas the outer leaves of cabbages etc is ok as not been contaminated. But as with all laws open to interpretation.

See this thread for the law.

After reading link it means any scraps from kitchen raw cooked don't matter

and it includes vegetarian kitchens too.
Its a daft law - but it is the law
