Chickens love Tacos Tuesdays

[Lilalienangel]

So, I was feeling like a dough head this morning. I painstakingly calculated the exact amount of feed they would need based on what they were eating at the time and not on the fact they are growing. This morning I was out of food. I had leftover taco meat from last night. I cut some tomatoes and mixed it all with a spring salad mix and a couple corn tortillas and a little cheese. They loved it. So much running around yelling mine, mine, mine. Lol. Now I realize this can not be a regular food. I can't help but wonder if I can get away with making it a once a week treat.

I love your creativity. I'd limit it to once a week, or less. The general rule of thumb is treats should be no more than 10% of the total diet.

Yes, I'd give it once a week. We always give our chickens scraps after dinner every day, it gives them time to eat their normal feed and forage first. Mostly we feed plant based foods because no meat is left behind in this house, but ours get those too if there's some.

Yum, I would yell "Mine!" too!
