If you know someone with chickens, give your pumpkins to them. The chickens love to eat the insides all the way to the edge of the rind. It is also supposed to be a natural dewormer.
I came here to say this! My chickens love pumpkins. If you know anyone who has goats they will demolish then. Aaaand You can also cube them or puree them and add them to dog food. With an appropriate ratio of animal protein.
For cat food you can boil and blend some chicken with a little bit of pumpkin and salt by weight. It comes out like a pate' and my cat loves it. Vet aproved if you stick with the correct ratios.
If you have dogs that like to chew and shred you can cut a hole in one to get it started and let them have at it outside.
I also highly reccomend calabaza en tacha as a dessert. Shit is sooo fucking good and really simple to make.
I used to grow pumpkins, but this time of year so many are being thrown out at stores that i just dive them now.
