I know how you feel, we gave some of our older hens to a neighbor, and when I was visiting a month later I found out they only fed rice, noodles and any leftovers from dinner. No layer feed, nothing. Every time I went over after that, I brought a baggie of pellets trying to get them to get the hint. It didn't work, and shortly thereafter the hens became ill and passed........ Sometimes, it's neighborly to help out, as long as you aren't overbearing about it, and it didn't sound like you were. I give my next door neighbors dogs biscuits (they have 6 pit bulls, a border collie and a bulldog mix) so they will get used to us. They've seen us but don't complain, so I'll keep doing it until they ask me to stop, I'm just nice like that
