from Middle Georgia - have passed through your town in the past on the Wiregrass Trail.

I bet she just likes the seeds whether or not salty - why not just offer those without the salt?
 
Welcome to BYC. Glad you decided to join our flock. The sunflower seeds should be fine for her as long as they don't constitute too much of her diet. Treats should make up less than 10% of a chicken's diet. Commercial feeds are specially formulated to meet all of a chicken's nutritional needs and too many treats will make them fat and unhealthy. If you haven't done so already, definitely check out our Learning Center at https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center. There is lots of useful information there. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Cheers.
 
Hello!
400

Welcome to BYC and the coop! There's a lot of great peeps here! Feel free to ask lots of questions. But most of all, make yourself at home. I'm so glad you decided to join the BYC family. I look forward to seeing you around BYC. I feed mine the wild bird seed as scratch. My girls go right for the sunflower seeds. :)
 
I just had an accident where I fed my 6 girls salted sunflower seeds and freaked out! I had my husband pick up sunflower seeds at the store and he got the wrong kind. I wish I had checked before I tossed my chicks a few. Now I’m all over here trying to find out if my hens will be ok. Help!
