Can piggies have tomato seeds?

[Betsy]

I have never given my lot tomatoes cos we don't eat them. My neighbour flew to America this morning and last night brought over some left over salad including 2 tomatoes for my piggies. When I try my herd with tomatoes tonight, do I have to cut out the seeds or are they safe for piggies to eat?

They can eat them with the seeds

Yup, mine get the whole tomato, (without leaves or stalk)

Oh yes, Anselmo used to love eating tomatoes and smearing the seeds all over his face. I'll have to see if I can find a photo of him at home. My boyfriend was never impressed as he really hates tomatoes. He was certain Anselmo did it on purpose as he was usually quite neat when eating other veg.

And to think I’ve always carefully deseeded tomatoes on the occasions mine get them

Thanks everyone!

See what mess they make next time you feed them one with the seeds in @Merab's Slave! It's fun to see them eat them if you just give them a whole small cherry tomato!

Guess what the girls get tomorrow

Dennis went straight for his quarter of tomato and started munching! I only gave them half a tomato between all 5 as they have never had it before and I didn't want them to get runny tummies I'll wait for a couple of days to see what the reaction is before giving any more.

I couldn't find a full photo of Anselmo eating a tomato so I've taken a screenhot of my Instagram page of him. What a mess!

Looks like he enjoyed that! Love his little pink tongue it looks like he's licking his lips!
