Isn't it weird how flocks have their own particular preferences? Mine will eat lettuce and pretty much any green, but not carrots unless they are cooked a little first. Grapes, blueberries and cantaloupe/watermelon rinds are favorites, they like apples well enough, but they aren't as wild about strawberries. Since we had a freeze last night I added a little corn to their wet mash this morning, and I just took them a plate of sourdough discard with seeds, oats and peas mixed in. They were squabbling over it when I left.Mine love cabbage, blueberries and grapes. They despise peppers and lettuce.
The innards of pumpkins, cucumbers, melons etc are always popular. The flesh they sometimes love and sometimes not.
