Flowers in lawn

[Monykutzu]

I recently put up an outside hutch for my piggies, and although I haven't put them out yet I noticed today some white flowers are growing in the bottom bit, in the shade. Are these safe to eat when I do put the piggies outside? Thanks!

It doesn’t look like anything I’ve seen on the list. Have a look at the thread below.
Safe wild weeds/plants you can feed your piggies

Not 100% but might be a bittercress

This one is new to me - do you live over in N Ireland or the north of Scotland where they get some different things? Or just middling UK!
I'm mailing a gardener friend so unless someone comes up with an answer before tomorrow...
Cruciform flower (4 petals in a cross shape) suggest the brassica family ('mustards', cabbage-y things, cresses, rockets)
Are all leaves a similar shape? Some plants have a base rosette of leaves which then throws up stems with different shaped leaves.
Hopefully more info tomorrow!

My plant app thinks it is a bittercress too - most likely greater bittercress. Hairy bittercress is ok for piggies, maybe greater is too.

No, I live in Hampshire. It's growing in the shade only, let me know that your friend thinks. Thank you!

Actually, looking at photos online, it does look like wavy bittercress. Is this something they can eat?

Try this link Bitter-cress (Wavy)/ Wavy Bitter-Cress / Bitter Cress / bittercress - Wild Flower Finder
Wavy Bittercress - apparently 5 or 6 stamens - as opposed to 4 in hairy bittercress. Squinting at your pic I think I can see 5 or 6.
Foraging people seem to think they're good to eat - although my piggies tend to avoid anything with a mustard-y or pepper-y flavour eg they don't like rocket. Can't see any references to them being toxic. Will still check with the gardener!
