I've been reading some posts here and trying some stuff on Homer.
He loved the bannana and he liked the zucchini. :slurp:
He didn't try the orange (I gave him a tiny peice as a treat) and has no intrest in cucumber. :Pukey:
I'm going to try apple and carrot next.
Thanks :)

Let's see.. melon is a huge hit (watermelon, cataloupe, honeydew), berries (strawberries, blackberrie and raspberries) pears, apples,banana, papaya, mango. I usually get these last as Baby Foods. That way I can use up the smallest jar between all of my hogs and gliders in a few days.
As for veggies- peas, corn, carrots, sweet potato, finely chopped broccoli.
For the most part, my hogs are not crazy about eating veggies, unless it is in the baby food form

I don't really know. So far banana, apple, carrot, broccoli, and watermelon have met with no love from the hedgie. :(

I give our girl whatever fruit and veggies we are eating at the time. It's a hit and miss most times. :( Also, she'd love something one night and the next night she won't even give a second glance. Ahhhhh the fickle princess. :rolleyes:

Last night I discovered that Chloe LOVES peas. But the picky girl only eats them if you squeeze the insides out, she doesn't like the hull.

Bosco loves peas as well. Ive actually gotten into the habit of removing the outside from them for him, becase like your girl, he doesnt care for them. Can we say SPOILED?! :laugh:

Corn is not good for hedgies...they cannot digest it. :)

Fluffy likes bananas and shows no interest in apples. What he DOES love is chicken and turkey! I mean, he LOVES those!!! I'll have to try some of the veggies and fruits mentioned here, but, for now, meat rules. ;)

I bet you can without the tiny seeds in kiwi, just the green part. But I'm not even sure whether that's necessary since some people feed strawberries and other berries with tiny seeds in them. :)
