In the Brooder
Ok, I just figured out how to post questions again. I got lost on the website- I hate when that happens! I am only going to ask one question per post.
My 3 - 2yr old hens will not eat ANY green veggies at all. The previous owner of them fed them junk food - i.e.: pizza, breads, corn on the cob, anything leftover from previous night dinner. They're spoiled she says... I give them a small "treat" in the morning and maybe in the evening. Mealworms, blueberries, bananas, watermelon (on hot days). Sometimes (once a week) I scramble eggs and mix the shells in to try to get more calcium in them. Sometimes I throw a little bird seed their way. They have oyster shell available, but I've never seen them eat it. They also have laying pellets in a feeder all the time. How can I get them to eat lettuce, kale, spinach, collard greens, stuff like that?
