Hands down, what is a chickens FAVORITE food/treat/scraps?

[cjpines]

I guess my chickens are health conscious. Their favorite food now is Kale, they just go nuts. We grow our own, but I still have to buy from the store.

First, I'm green beaned out from our garden, not my hubby, loves them and pickles them.

Second: You don't have to cook kale, they eat it raw. I put it into one of those bird bell balls and hook it onto the fence, or I just toss it on the ground.
