guess I''ll just chop 'em up!

We live in orchard country and occasionally get some old nuts given to us. I thought my 8mo. old girls would like them but the nuts look kind of big. So since I read here that the hens like almond meal, I guess chopped nuts would be OK. Right? We are getting usually 5 eggs a day from 6 girls and we're very pleased. Just wanna keep them happy. I love all the good hints coming from BYC!

Anything you feed has to be chopped to the size it will fit in the esophagus.
No hands or teeth.

I had to read this just to check the title didn't mean your hens.

Yes, my girls like nuts. If I'm being lazy I don't chop 'em up, I squash 'em with a brick. (the nuts, not the hens)
