I know oranges are on the safe list, but what about the peels? Bailee snagged a bite of one the other day and LOVED it.... and he was okay after. ANy thoughts?

I have been looking for orange peels but I cannot find it so don't know

the fruit of an orange may be on the safe list but it should be fed very sparingly as its sugar content is extremely high.

Maybe the citrus peels are limes and lemons? I've fed orange peels to mine for a long time with no problems.
