Do any of you feed runner beans or asparagus to your piggies? Are they ok for them to eat - and do they like them?!
 
I am not sure you can give them runner beans hopefully someone will clarify that. asparagus I think is ok have you looked at the shopping list for piggies?
 
Yes I did - asparagus is on there, but not "runner beans" although other types of beans are. Really I wanted to know if anyone else's pigs like them first...
 
Asparagus is really expensive but I bought 2 sticks of it (the cashier in sainsburys gave me a very strange look 98)) a while back and they didnt like it. Runner beans I havent tried but they should be ok. Remove the stringy bit though I would say. Just get a couple of beans to try it. Mine adore the fresh peas in the pods which are going out of season soon and are half price in most places. I cut off the ends and they eat pods and all. They like broad beans too O0
 
Thanks lavenderjade. I did try them with peas in pods but they weren't too impressed! They like the green beans you can buy in a pack, might look for broad beans too then.....all these different types of beans! I'm not a bean eater myself, getting confused with all the different ones!
 
Loulou likes peas in pods. Meg sort of does, but Lou gets quite excited at "unwrapping" the peas. ;D
