Hi
Does anyone know if it is safe to feed them raw or should they be cooked first? If to be cooked is baking them ok, just its the only way I could think of that wont just leave a soggy mush!!!

Why do you want to feed cooking apples instead of normal apples?
Just curious lol

too many can cause upset stomachs especially becuase there stronger then normal apples...and a bit more sour...

She gets one a day and theres still apples going to waste - grandad talks nice to his trees ;)
