Yes, mine love grapes! They love to pick them up and pop them in their mouths - then the juice runs down their faces. It's funny to watch. I wouldn't feed too many though. Good luck!

Grapes are fine in a varied, balanced diet BUT they are also high in sugar and fairly low in fiber. In general, we want to limit the overly sweet fruits like grapes, banana, and so on. Not cut or ignore, just use in moderation, more of a treat than a staple.
