Can I feed dried chickpeas if I soak them overnight?
I'm a wanderer.
Apparently chickpeas and any beans have to be fully cooked as uncooked beans, even if soaked overnight, contain hemagglutinin which is toxic to birds
Thanks Adam, I'll cook them like I do for human consumption! Hope the birds like them as much as I do!
I would be surprised if any garden birds recognised chickpeas as a food source. Ducks on a local pond maybe would though?
