Raw Fava Bean

Postby flappybird » Tue Oct 10, 2017 10:13 am

The internet as a whole has conflicting information on raw fava beans.

Does anyone have any advice / experience with feeding raw fava beans?
My local grocery store had some fresh, still in the pods, and since I know Luna likes to break open pods, I thought these might be fun.

No raw beans ever as far as I know so I would not risk it.
