Hi.
Sorry, did you mean 'google' or 'gobble'?

I have never tried dry fruits. I know that in some seed mixes, there are little bits of what appears to be dried fruit. My guys have never shown any interest In these bits.

I see that they do not mention the sugar content, any idea what this may be?

I was just trying to figure out the time difference, between SA and my part of Canada, but you had already logged off, when I'd asked my question.

With all that fruit I would worry about the sugar content if fed in large quantities.
