Peanut butter as a treat?

[ninabeast]

It's not on the treat list, so I'll ask here. My daughters frequently leave the crusts of their sandwiches. I know the chickens will like the bread, but what about the peanut butter? Is it good for them? Do they grok it?

I've never given peanut butter to mine, but I don't think it would hurt them in small quantity. I have given them peanuts before though. Just not too many as they have a lot of salt.

Mine get sandwich crusts frequently. I wouldn't give them just peanut butter, but I think a small amount on bread is okay. Leftover grilled cheese are my chickies favorite sandwich.

Mac and cheese is a hit too.

Oh yeah. Gave my girls some mac and cheese the kids didnt finish, They loved it. Ran around like I gave them some mealworms or something.

My 10 week olds have found a love of Cherrios.

Mine will eat anything, so, yes they like peanut butter. More usually I give them unsalted raw peanuts ground down to size which they also love.
