Can Pigs have Grapes?
I know they are toxic to a lot of animals so want to check before giving them.
I have 10 full boxes of them  so about 100kg  ::)

I've fed grapes to pigs - but like anything, feed in moderation and let their systems get used to them.  (If they fermet you'll have drunk pigs!)

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing
