What do you consider a treat ?

Here's a list of some healthy treats for chickens:

Just remember to keep treats to about 10% of their daily intake so they fill up on their feed and not the snack stuff.

Welcome from a fellow Georgian. I'm in south Monroe County a mile or so from Macon. There are quite a number of folks on BYC from GA. You may find someone closer to you own the "Yo Georgian's" forum, or search the "where am I, where are you" forums for who's in your area.


So glad you have joined us.

Sounds like you need to train your Penny - peck = no treats. No peck = treats.

They are truly a lot smarter than most folks think.

I also have a Penny - originally was "Penny the Pincher" til she learned to be daintier on getting treats from the human hand.

Hello!

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 joined the BYC family. I look forward to seeing you around BYC. I treat mine with meal worms, fresh fruit and sometimes bread. All my chickens love bread.
