Been Sprouts

[AutumnThePig]

Hi

I need a second opinion. I bought bean sprouts, but I’m not sure if these specific sprouts are safe to give to the piggies.

Should I give just the sprouts and wash out the beans? Or, can I give them both?

Thank you!

Yes - I feed the occasional one to my lot and they love them (except Ruby - but then Ruby is strange).
I don't remove the bean, just rinse and serve.

My piggies love beansprouts and get them for dinner once a week, just rinse them well first

Ooh this is useful to know :-) we are having stir fry for tea so will try the girls with some.

If they don't eat it right away, I wouldn't worry about it. They need time to get used to it, then they will eat it.
Keep trying new things with them and you will be surprised what they can eat. Always give them some time though.

The amount I gave them, was gone in under 5 minutes!

That's a long time! Mine gobble up beansprouts in 5 seconds flat! ⏱

Wow, that's fast! It was mixed in with a bowl of veggies. The bowl was gone in five minutes
