Treats chickens DON'T Like

Quote:
My chickens turned up their beaks at yogurt, until I pureed some cantaloupe and added it. They also love it with a little pureed apple in it. I add some unsalted sunflower seeds too..they gulp it until there is not a speck left. Another way they might eat it is to make it a little more firm by putting it in cooked oatmeal - add some applesauce or something too...I buy Dannon all natural, fat-free, plain yogurt, but I have been out before and given them some active strawberry yogurt and they loved that too.

How old are they. I know when mine were younger they also would not eat treats. Now I fix them a plate of them every morning and the plate is empty before I can get out of the run. Keep trying!!
 
Mine like parsley.

Since I feed the leftovers from dinner *no meat*, most of my babies eat everything. The older bantams don't like the commercial feed but love my MIL's white country gravy. Matter of fact, I've seen them turn up their beaks at most of the veggies *unless the veggies are all that's left* and go nuts for anything that is a softer food. They love yogurt and mashed pot's (potatoes) too. So the gravy goes under the commercial feed, and they end up eating it with the gravy.
