Please tell me poached egg is ok :0
« on: January 19, 2012, 02:31:00 PM »

I was just having my lunch......Poached Egg on toast and I didn't even see Molly sneaking up on me (she was like a sniper) and in a flash she grabbed a chunk of the Egg and gobbled it like a savage!!

It's my fault for eating in the same room while she's out and she bit me on the finger when I tried to get her off :0
It it ok for her to have Egg? It only had pepper on it and was just a small amount. I've never seen her act so crazy over food is that normal?

Donna and a greedy Molly x

Although pouched egg and pepper is not good for her, it will be OK since it's a one time thing and she did not get much, so don't worry  :thumbsup:

If she likes egg, then you can give her a hard boiled egg mashed up every now and then, I give my three Hobbits a hard boiled egg, mashed up with a little palm nut extract on once a month, they love it.  :yummy:

I boil the egg for about 30 to 40 minutes and I also crumble up the shell and mix that in with it too  :thumbsup:

I do mine scrambled egg.......which is just the egg, nothing added to it at all.  Just do it in a pan and give it to them with a little bit of toast and palm oil spread on the toast.

Thank you Julie and pat x I didn't realised they could have Egg :) I've never seen her like that she was even tipping her head back to get it down her throat quicker :o x
I will make her a boiled egg and soldiers when the palm oil arrives.

 :rofl:  Molly the she devil  :haha:

I give my two either scrambled egg, or hard boiled egg, mushed with a few pellets and palm oil every now and again.  I also crush the shell up and mix that in also

They seem to quite like it every other week or so, for a change

She shouldn't have egg too often. Not more than a teaspoon full at a time ;)
