EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[Pensmaster]

I've seen all the stuff on not feeding apples to chickens because of the seeds, but then I've seen stuff that says that a broody hen will show chicks what is okay to eat.  So I guess those broodies are out there picking out the seeds for the chicks before they let them chow down on the apples? Our chickens free range area includes our apple trees, and they sure spend a lot of time out there eating unhealthy stuff!  Come to think of it, so do I....so pass the chips and dip and pour me another Pepsi, will you please?
