Cherry Stems?

Starbuck ate a cherry stem tonight and is going nuts looking for more. Is it safe to feed?

Thanks!

Re: Cherry Stems?

Why not just give her some fresh cherry instead with the pit removed. Stems don't have much nutrition.

My dad had eaten all the cherries, all that was left was the stems (but the pigs were going nuts trying to get them).

Real cherries are on the to do list for today.

I just know that Starbuck got a few before I noticed, but it doesn't seem to have hurt her.

Re: Cherry Stems?

Just be sure not to over feed them as fruit needs to be fed in moderation.
