    What did you give your chickies today?

    I buy a jar of seeds from amazon.com that has radish, broccoli, alfalfa, and clover.

    feeding treats

    Which way do you feed your chickens their treats, ie greens, fruit, etc. do you put it in on the ground or place it in a pan...I know they are chickens but it has been raining and even though my run has a roof over it the ground is wet and nasty.
