Okay, so I know they can have sweet peppers and need them at least once a day because they are very high in vitamin C... but can they eat the stem thing and the seeds inside it? I just bought a whole package of mini sweet peppers, yellow, orange and red ones they are SO CUTE :)) but I need to know if little Sweets can have them whole or if I need to cut the stem and center out like I do out of habit on the big ones. Thank you!x>>

I can't get my boyz into sweet peppers... they refuse to eat them.

Even go as far as ripping them from my hand and throwing them against the wall of their hutch... I took that as a "NO".

I take the seeds out. I heard from someone that you are supposed to... but I can't remember why! Just cut out the stem/seeds and give them the fleshy parts.
 
No stem or leaves (nightshade family, like tomatoes and potatoes) and no seeds either, please!

Peppers are the veg with the highest content of vitamin C, ahead of parsley (which they shouldn't have daily) and broccoli (which they can). One slice of pepper is enough. Also fairly high in vitamin C are fresh dill and coriander. You can vary between these veg. Just include one of them in your daily feeds if possible.
