Little green bug? No...those awful Asian lady bugs. They are orange and stink when you squish them. They love my house.

That’s just one window. They currently love my bathroom....

I haven’t seen any in the house

She is a 8 month old Bluebar.

I give them " treats" ( veggies and fruits) 5 or 6 times a week. 2 pie pans of chopped veggies or fruits shared by 9 chickens

Don't think she is any more of a piggie than the rest of them.

That is too much treats in my opinion.

Really? Even though it's mostly greens and fruit? Wouldn't they eat that much and wayyyy more if they were free ranging all day?

I am officially putting this research project on hold.
I will continue it soon though.

Let's talk this out real quick.
About how many cups of said treats do you think fits in one pie pan?
2 or 3 cups worth?

About 4 cups especially if chopped

“They” say treats shouldn’t be more then 10% of their diet. So say 8 cups of fruits and veggies 2-3 times a week. 20 cups a week between 9 chickens. That’s 1/3 cup per chicken per day....

They are going to eat and fill up on the treats first and not eat as much of the complete feed.
