Are they ok to feed to the chucks? I have been getting a few off the golf course by me when I walk the dog. They are lovely but I am getting a bit sick of them but can't bear to see them going to waste.

Thanks all

Ben

I would say no as they are not to be fed to parrots ! make soup and freeze for later maybe ?

Not to worry, I had all ready kind of decided that I wouldn't bother to give them to them but if anyone does here I would still like to know.

Cheers all
