Hi,

Do I cook the sweet potato first or offer it raw?

I feed mine cooked. However, I really don't know if they can also be fed raw. We usually bake ours and I let them have a little butter or brown sugar on their.
I feed these more as a treat than as a regular veggie smile

I've never tried feeding them raw sweet potatoes because I thought they were toxic unless cooked. I have no clue where I got that from, I've just figured better safe than sorry smile
