They work! Blueberries, small broccoli crowns, garbanzo beans if you want protein, watermelon chunks ... whatever!

By the way, a goodly sized seedless watermelon chunk straight out lf the fridge is good too. They'll love it and it will help keep them hydrated

I have an old chest freezer ... I'll freeze some gallon plastic water bottles and put them in there ... helps the freezer run more efficiently when it is not full, and if there's a power outage, I have back up for keeping food cool ... anyway ...

Every once in a while on a REALLY hot day, I'll cut of the plastic and take that large chunk of ice and put it in a slightly larger pan for the chickens to have ice water to drink.

Okay! If I bug you, let me know!

I give mine plain watermelon and tomatoes frozen. I tried the great muffin pan idea but didn't continue (mostly because my freezer is too small) and because I find they melt quickly. The watermelon they like especially and it helps a ton
