Funny post Love it!!I'm going to be horribly honest and disgrace myself in the process.
I give treats every day. but the quantity in relation to their feed and what they forage is very small; less than 5% of their daily food intake.
I don't feed what you call scratch in the USA.
I give a small amount of fish or meat every other day in their feed during the winter months and every three days in the spring and summer when there are more bugs available. I don't count this as treats. It's to ensure they don't all start wearing beads and sandals and ask me to buy them Vegan cookbooks and try to sit cross legged in the nest boxes; it confuses the chicks for a start.
Now some hens prefer some things while others prefer other things.
Fat Bird for example loves a bit of Pizza; Bracket won't touch the stuff and complains that the Mozzarella gums her beak up
The wine grapes that grow here are really popular. I've stopped peeling them for them because I just get mobbed when they get tired of waiting.
Vintage cheddar cheese seems to go down well with all, but I can only do this once in a while because it takes ages for the peck wounds on the ends of my fingers to heal up.
Walnuts are liked by all. I've always got some in my pocket, whereas I found with meal worms I was getting strange looks in the local bars when I pulled a handkerchief out which wiggles a bit.
Punch is rather keen on a bit of yogurt with the local honey mixed in but he's not the tidiest of eaters and the clean up operation after is a bit of a chore.
What the heck do all those acronyms mean?I've got 4BO that will be a year next month. They get 1/8cup BOSS & 1/8cup MW daily at close up, they're confined to their "open air" Chicken House. Fed fermented Flock Raiser 2x day.
