wild birds?

well we have a plethora of seagulls round here that will mob you from the sky if they catch a wiff of a chip, but they are greedy beggers.
as a one off, probrably, but i would assume its not that good for them, they shouldn't really have bread either. but with winter coming on.......why not?

i've fed them to the birds before, and none of them have ever actually dropped dead in front of me , as long as theres no salt, most things are fine, as long as they have a variety of food. and the fat is good fo them this time of year, keeps them warm.

My dad has fish and chips nearly every Friday through the winter, all the leftovers (liberally sprinkled with salt and vinegar) get put out for the birdies. They seem to love them as much as we do.

Definitely don't give salt to birds - just a tiny bit to us is a huge dose to an ickle birdie.

Chips, I wouldn't have thought would be too bad ... any food is welcome if they are hungry.

I already (very happily) spend a ton on wild bird food, fat slabs, mealy worms, fat balls etc etc but tonight (following Indian take-out) I couldn't eat all the chips (yer I know, what a slob eating chips with curry!) due to all the cakes and poo cake so I thought 'hum, could darling birdies eat these'

thanks, birdies will be having salt-free chips for breakie

My chooks love chips! I don't use salt so that shouldn't be a worry. I always ask for extra batter as they fight over that!

I don't think I really want to know, but "poo cake"???

[Nicos]

Fish and chips????....oh stop being so MEAN peeps....would that have been ordered with mushy peas and curry sauce too???



Why is it you always start fancying something to eat when you can't get hold of it????

Two Sheds and Snadger made me poo cakes yesterday for my 'one year on Vine' birthday

Nicos, I offered the little birdies my curry sauce but they turned their noses up - they is posh round 'ere innit....
...as far as the chips go, they have shown no interest so far, but next door's cat was breakfasting on them earlier
