Are chickens fans of blueberries?

[SterlingAcres]

Because I found masses of them tonight... maybe the chicks will like them?

they will love them. I have a friend who says her chicks go "blueberry bowling" It's so cute

Mine really enjoyed the blueberries that I gave them. They were a special treat.

 

[spook]

is it food? Of course it would be much better tasting for them if you wanted them...lol!

Forget the chickens I WANT the blueberries! I love Blueberries!

OH, yeah! They do Olympic jumps for them. Hope the antioxidants are as good for chickens as they are for us!

I was just wondering. I mean, if they were larger, I'd pick some for jam or pies. But these are puny. The biggest one I found was about the size of my pinkie nail.

I figure next year, the goats will probably wipe the bushes out. I might as well collect some 'treats' for the chickies, right?

My RIR and banty love them.

Black star & PBR not as interested.

I'm told these are infact huckleberries? I didn't know we had them in PA... What's the difference besides being sweeter?

My girls go crazy for blueberries. They don't get them very often because they usually don't last that long!
