I use those baskets like you use for suet. Is that what you mean?That's a great idea!! Something that I like doing is hanging veggies in a wire basket. It's so much fun watching the chickens peck at it as it spins.
Yes, I have used a suet basket too. The one I was talking about is wire plant basket with 3 connected chains and a hook that I got at my local dollar store.
That's cool! So you hang several things at once?Yes, I have used a suet basket too. The one I was talking about is wire plant basket with 3 connected chains and a hook that I got at my local dollar store.
My grandma had chickens when I was a kid and I grew up with them. My husband didn't. To me, they were just a chore and I didn't want them. My husband did. Now, I'm glad we did. I don't know why I didn't get as much joy from the as I do now. I have skewered apple slices for them - as well as tomatoes and squash. I have also skewered cabbage and cukes. I'll have to look for the basketView attachment 3620165View attachment 3620194
I couldn't find a photo of my hanging wire basket to show you. The basket works great for a head of lettuce, cauliflower or broccoli.
They also enjoy it when I skewer fruits and veggies for them. I take it down once they get down to the apple cores, (so they don't ingest any apple seeds). It keeps them (and me) entertained!
Yes. Watching them chase bugs is especially satisfying
