My chickens really like wheat flour and milk all mixed up!

A friend of mine saved the dust at the bottom of the food bags, and on cold winter night mixed it with warm water for her hens, she said they loved it!

If feeding sunflower seeds - are shells ok too?

 

[KelsiNS]

My chickens eat the shells most of the time if i pick them right off the plant-otherwise i just buy shelled (for me) and they get a handful

 

[EggresiveAli]

Mine fight each other for spaghetti

 

[PekinBantam]

Mine LOVE almonds and bananas mixed with their food.

I was SO disappointed the other day. I planted and grew sunflowers this year specifically as chicken treats. I had three lovely, huge seed heads that I cut off and put on top of the run to dry. I pulled off a handful of the seeds the other day and dropped them into the run expecting chickens to go mad for them...but no. They turned their beaks up at them and didn't eat a single one. I guess I'll have to eat them myself.
