Brown sugar is for carmelizing, and thats a recipe for people granola lol.  Feel free to adjust it though for birdies :)

1 Blue JG and 1 Black JG,1 Penciled Rock Rooster.  1 Cornish chick, 5 Sussex, 3 mix chicks, 3 australorp chicks, 1 blue australorp chick, and one wild kitty!  

 

10 meaties on the way, 2 red layers, 4 EE too!!!  Chicken Math strikes again! 

 

The Rooster may crow, but it is the Hen that delivers the goods!

i love the second picture, it's like they are saying 'NO WAY momma... what do think we are?'    or 'you expect us to do WHAT with that thing?'    gig.gif

I looked at all the caged animals in the barn...the cast-offs of human society. I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness, and betrayal. And I was angry."God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?"God was silent for a moment, and then He spoke softly, "I have done something," he replied.  "I created you."

Yea, hide it like we used to do with our peas when we were little. 'Yup, ate it alllll and it was yummy!' meanwhile it was stuffed under our mashed potatoes or stuck to the underside of the table......

Love the way they are all staring at the unbreakable chunk!  Maybe a hammer would help.  I remember one of my first attempts to bake a pound cake that was so bad the dog wouldn't even go near it!

Love it!! you could market them as miniblocks..... we never have cooking mistakes here, the flock gets it- but some things they just won't touch..... orange veggies they turn their beaks up at...

Louise attempts the foot stomp to shatter the morsel

There is much discussion among the flock

Stan attempts to break the clump with his foot

Stan pushes the mass around to show it who's boss

Then two try to break it

Maybe staring at it will make it fall apart

Then several attack it at once

DSC_0021.JPG

 

 

They keep chipping away at it

DSC_0082.JPG

 

Another foot stomp to keep it in place

And they keep at it

I think I'll call these things,  'mini flock blocks'.  lol.png
