This is what I am thinking: If I raise rabbits and chickens together: rabbits will create protein from grass, and chicken will eat rabbit meat (protein): problem solved.

I'm thinking zombies! They'll be plentiful, easily obtained & high in protein. Sorry, couldn't resist.

everyone has spoiled chickens, this was the 1st year I was able to get them to eat table scraps--we kind of made it a game from the breakfast room window. we started out with bread--they jumped up and grabbed it and ran off. now we are up to scraps of watermelon, zucchini, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, peaches, cantaloupe, strawberries, blueberries, grapes(holy crap you should see the rooster pop a whole grape down, hilarious) corn on the cob empties, basically any fruit or vegie I use to throw the scraps in the garbage go out the window now. we have crap loads of apple trees here, so the apples are falling now and they are eating them very well. my feed bill is down by over half right now but winter is coming.... my daughter fed one of the chickens cooked chicken(it loved it)--ethically I was in a quandary(but they do eat egg)- but they have ate cooked beef and pork, macaroni and cheese, left over rice that the dog didn't get--pieces of left over lunch sandwiches, stale potato chips, corn chips, peanut butter crackers, (stale cereal they were not fond of- but pecked at it)I read in one thread that dried beans was bad for chickens so I have not fed mine any but then, I have been scared to feed then any cooked food. Any suggestion of table scraps that are good for chickens. and BTW, my chickens hate apples. Wonder whats up with that. Maybe I have fed them too many tomato scraps.
