Joolesgreyuk Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 My Beau absolutely adores pomegranite, unfortunately I don't much like giving it to him as the area surrounding it/him usually ends up wearing the stuff! Asda have started doing fresh pomegratite & raspberry juice (not concentrate) in plastic bottle containers so I thought I'd try it with him even though he isn't keen on raspberries and he is drinking it. A nice non-messy alternative to pomegranite I think ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearllyn Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Oh Alfie loves pomes too - I will def try that thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JillyBeanz Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Very interesting! I know exactly what you mean about the mess - my blinds have been replaced in the conservatory due to my mis-judgement last summer!!! Another form is dried - Sheila told me about these and Harvey loves them - no mess at all!! So, do the birds drink it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Pomegranate juice is GreYt. I drink an 8oz glass daily for health. I also drink a blend of Pomegranate blueberry, apple and grape juice daily. Both Dayo and Jake love it. The BIG PLUS is no mess....well other than your face and shirt when they shake the drips off their beaks. I have been keeping this a secret and laughing at peoples posts regarding the mess eat the pom seeds makes.:evil: But, the jig is up and now the world knows about juice. I do need to mention. All the juices I drink are 100 percent and include the pulp etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joolesgreyuk Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 I've tried looking for the dried pomegranite but can't find it anywhere, not supermarkets nor health food shops. I think Sheila suggested Sainsburys but tbh I'd have to go a bit out of my way to go there and so I haven't bothered and yes they do drink it.

casper Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 The seeds are great ( fresh ones) which you can buy from Asda or Tesco, still a bit messy but not as bad as the full fruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jessdecutie18 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I've never had Pomegranite, and neither has Yoshi. I hear how messy it is, and I decided not to worry about getting that... but watching that video, pulling out the seeds doesn't look bad! Do they like the seeds most, or the actual fruit?

judygram Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I had heard that seeding one was better under water and the video shows exactly how it should be done, maybe I will try it now, thanks for the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course when the pomegranite had been de-seeded it looked totally different to Beau thus making him highly suspicious of it lol, so although it was given to him as breakfast this morning he has only just started eating it (it's now 2pm) but he is enjoying it and it is a lot less messy. Thanks for the tip Lambert58. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
