I'm not sure, I only feed the inside of the potato to my hams.

If they're organic a small amount of skin should be ok but otherwise I'd just stick to the flesh & not give them the skin.

I gave Twinkle some Sweet Potato and she loved it so much, she sat at her cage door looking for more. I always make sure any potato I give is cooked.
So Shelley how did you get on with the sweet potato?
