Corn on the cob - Quick question

[StarlightSerenity]

Do I need to cook corn on the cob before I can give it to my syrian?

[StarlightSerenity]

Anyone...?

I don't think so. They should be fine, i'm pretty sure.

I think it is fine. Although ensure it's thoroughly washed. I think the reason people cook the corn first is to get rid of any paracites or fungi that might be in it (although I don't think there would really be any...). I had a look on google (as I've only every fed Sen cooked corn or dried corn) and people have suggested feeding raw corn to hamsters.

I can't see why not, as if they came across it in the wild they would eat it.

Thanks, thats what I thought.

I'll give her some tomorrow, she's already had carrot and mealworms today
