Question Wild Cabbage, Fennel, White Cabbage, Chinese Cabbage.

Can my pigs have these vegetables? If yes how often?

Wild Cabbage:



Fennel:


This one we call here Spitskool or Witte kool. The first one is a pointy early white cabbage and the next is normal white cabbage (I think, Correct me if I'm wrong):



Chinese Cabbage:




They sell these cabbages at my grocery store (no romaine sadly) and it's not on the vegetable chart so I was wondering if these were Okay to give, how often and how much?

I feed all of them successfully but have never heard of Wild Cabbage. We call the Chinese cabbage, Chinese Leaf, it's a particular favourite!

Re: Wild Cabbage, Fennel, White Cabbage, Chinese Cabbage.

The wild cabbage is looking a lot like Kale to me.

Fennel is fine to feed a couple times per week.

The third one is regular white cabbage, it's on the charts.

The fourth one looks like what we in the US would call Napa Cabbage. It's fine to feed. Just follow the guidelines for regular cabbage.
