Hi, had a dinner party last night, got some fresh pineapple, something in the back of my mind is saying that ive read somewhere that you shouldnt give hens pineapple, i might be totaly wrong, so ive got it sitting in fridge, waiting for answer, is it in the bin, or to the hens, hopefully some one out there will let me know, thanks TC

Ours had a few chunks back in the summer and are still with us. Might have sent them loopy though. Who'd notice ? :shock:

I thought it was avocado you couldn't give chooks...?

I definitely know you can't give chocolate to dogs... well, unless you wanted to kill them...!!!!

perhaps we should give chocolate to the chooks and who knows we might get chocolate eggs at Easter

Sorry couldn't resist
