I believe they can eat grapes? but can they eat raisins? The girls are hoping so but I've told them to be patient while I make sure  :)

Not many of them mind but yes.  They can get the runs with to much fruit.   Grapes are better.

Mine love grapes and sultanas - given as a treat.  I use the grapes as the way to get wormer into them in some kind of even distribution and also sometimes put the poultry spice on them as well -  I grop tomatoes in the summer so with a glut occasionally they get them as well. :)

i chucked a huge overipe strawberry out of my bedroom window yesterday, omg what a commotion, 8 polands all chasing each other and grabbing for it, Emma had a good head start but couldn't find anywhere to hide so she could eat it in peace, it was hilarious watching them, i think they all got a bit in the end :D
