Hey chicken farmer... what kind of rooster do you have there in your avatar?
My guess is Swedish Flower, a breed at the very top of my wish list.

I agree - very helpful, especially with the pics included! Thanks for sharing!Terry, thanks for the link to your composting system. I enjoyed your blog!
I give my chickens fruit, yogurt, corn cobs, melons etc. I will have to try the noodles with them.
awwwwwwwwww so cute!!!On hot days I give my girls a Frozen watermelon halfed... They Love it. I have even seen some that inside the empty rind and take a nap CUTE!!
Using different types of feeders is good too because it allows for less dominant birds to feed with ease and gives variety... Like a hanging, a bowl, or even a hay feeder like you use for rabbits or GP. Put leafy greens or carrots in it
Like others said hanging a cabbage is fun. Also if you have a mesh bag or even a onion bag.. you can fill it with hay, or corn on the cob.. They have to work a little harder for the food so it keeps them busy Just watch the bag.. it will eventually be pecked apart. I usually put mine in for just a few hours and remove . Or do so when Im working outside.
Do you think a regular "dose" of olive oil in their diey might prevent crop binding?olive oil is fine. In fact, when I have a crop-bound bird, olive oil is the life saver.
