Kiwi fruits are commercially grown in New Zealand and belong to the Actindiaceae family.Its generic name is Actinidithia chinesis /Actinidia deliciosa

Kiwi fruits are hairy to keep the outside of the fruit good, while the inside is being developed. It helps protect insects from eating the inside because the hairs will stick to their legs causing them to try to detach themselves, which means they'll fly away forgettng what they were doing in the first place. The hairy coating is very rich in flavoniod antioxidants, which are very high in dietary fiber, causing them to have a mild laxative effect.

yes they grow in tropical jungles.

Kiwifruit is native to central China.
People say that kiwi fruit comes from New Zealand, but its not. Kiwi fruit actually comes from China, and was actually called Chinese goose berry, but china decided to give the kiwifruit to New Zealand, which is now a traditional fruit to us New Zealanders.

Mine really enjoy pomegranate seeds. I'd hesitate to feed whole without further research - while the rind traditionally has been used medicinally for humans, considering the amounts horses could consume I'd want reassurance that the amount of tannins etc. would be ok. But the part we normally eat, no problem.

(Prior answer claimed horses only eat apples - they enjoy, and can safely consume, a wider variety of fruits than just apples, though those are the most traditional offering.)

When the Chinese Gooseberry industry was becoming established in New Zealand the name was changed to kiwifruit possibly because of their likeness colourwise to the native bird.

Delicious as a fresh fruit topping on hot and cold cereals, in fruit salads and healthy milkshakes, and crushed on toast.

Together with blueberries they are the richest sources of vitamins and nutrients of all the berries

Kiwifruit prefer summer better than most other seasons. When you are growing them make sure they are not near a lot of water in the winter.

Kiwifruit need a sunny location with wind protection. They do best in a warm protected location. The temperature they like the most is 80*. But they can grow in northern states.

"Leaves of some kiwifruit species (A.kolomikta and A. polygama) contain a substance that has an effect similar to catnip. In China, kiwivine leaves reportedly are fed to large cats as a sedative. You may find that cats become a pest of your new kiwifruit planting!"

No, do not give your guinea pig a kiwi fruit because the seeds get stuck in their throat, but they love peppers :) xxx

yes it is fine good for you actully

From the time they hatch, kiwi take between 18 months and 3 years to reach maturity; they can live for over 20 years.

Yes but it is not good for a baby parakeet. If you feed a parakeet kiwi make sure to peel the kiwi first and cut it into small pieces that are consumable for the bird.

But I recommend bird seed that is good for parakeets to eat that you can find at your local pet store.
