cheese

Protein, calcium..how can it be bad if it's natural cheese? Mine love cottage cheese and mozzarella and get a nice helping of one or the other about every other week.

I don't feed it often, but when I'm out of other fresh snacks, I grab a handful of shredded cheese for the girls and they just go nuts over it. I only give it to them about once a week, and I haven't noticed any bad effects. They're about 10 weeks and I've given 'em cheese for at least a month.

It's only a little more than a cup for 15 hens, so it's not like they each get a lot. I suspect it's like a lot of human treats in that moderation is the key...

mine like white cheese like shredded mozarella. I offer it as a snack. I havent seen any problem. I read its good for calcium and better egg shells.
