Ours are coming up for a month and five weeks (I think) and are getting some treats. They often take a couple of tries (more than one day) before they decide on whether they like it.
Favourites so far seem to be jellified chia seeds (a riot in the coop) and red cabbage sprouts -- ditto. A japanese beetle caused much excitement today but I'm not sure if they ate it or just pecked it and then ran away scared if it tried to fly.
So-so on mealworms and sunflower seeds and egg (except one chick), ditto yogurt. Watermelon rinds though while not as important as chia seeds or red cabbage sprouts is also well received. They also like other sprouts and peas (fresh or frozen).
What do yours like to eat? What don't they like?
