Cucumber seeds

I've been giving my piggies cucumbers without the seeds, cause I know that the seeds are what cause a lot of gas in people, but is this really neccessary?

Re: Cucumber seeds

Cucumber seeds are fine as they are very soft and pose no choking hazard. I give my bunch cucumber with skin, seeds and all after scrubbing the outside of course.

Re: Cucumber seeds

I agree, I feed them as well. I would not worry about it.

Re: Cucumber seeds

Thank you all, that will save me a little time and make it easier to teach the kids how and what to feed them.
