Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Ignoring the 10% rule
In spite of @BY Bob’s helpful visualization of the ‘only 10% treats’ rule I decided that getting any calories into Maggie was more important than ‘healthy eating’.
So I brought out the big guns.
Corn on the cob. As you can see, Maggie is obsessed with it.
I recorded it in SloMo but YouTube won’t show it in SloMo which is a real shame as on the original SloMo video there is some great swinging wattle action!

Edited to add. I figured out SloMo. Watch this instead.

I think YouTube added them. Nothing like that for real!

She really does have technique. The others are nowhere near as effective at corn on the cob.

A twofer:

Snowbird stopped pecking at mash snack to look at me. Today's snack had a can of salmon in it. Middle (black Australorp to the right) is looking very rough. Her neck looks like porcupine quills, poor girl.
