Olives

Postby Payday1897 » Tue Nov 13, 2007 1:18 pm

I know alot of people don't feed their blueys olives because they are very high in salt. I was just wondering if buying fresh olives or green versus black and thorough rinsing would beable to get rid of enough salt for these to be feasable. The caresheet has them at a 28-1 ca-p ratio and they are high in fat. I know blueys don't need alot of fat in their diet, but it just seems like they could be healthy for them as a 3 olives per week added to their normal food kinda thing. Does anyone have any experience with feeding olives and whether or not they even like them? Any opinions would be great!
My BTS can read. (I think)
