My old flock went crazy for sweet potatoes and skins, new flock might eat if you leave it. They are all different.OOooh they love scrambled egg but they aren't quite keen on the red grapes.. very odd, huh?

Is there anything in garden dangerous for them?You can mix their food with plain yogurt, feed them herbs from the garden (I do basil and cilantro and mint), chopped plain raw oats, and weeds such as clover or dandelion. My chicks really like the yogurt and oats. They also get all fluffed up and excited when I arrive with something green.
I’m pretty boring and mine are mostly vegetarians from the treat perspective but I do give them the black soldier fly grubs and dried meal worms- those when they were chicks. Since they discovered real worms the dried ones aren’t such an attraction. I give mine garden vegetables like cucumbers, lettuce, spinach, I let them play tether ball with a head of cabbage in their run. They love that! They also like frozen sweet peas when it’s hot. I put them in a pan of water or even Save-a chick and let them go bobbing for peas and they drink more and get their feet wet also while cooling down. I even did it will a small pack of frozen sweet corn that I had put up earlier this spring. They really loved that. They pigged out that afternoon! It was like a heat index of 112 degrees and they were miserable and when I put that big pan of cold save a chick out there with that frozen corn out there they really perked up. I mostly use vegetables but you can’t go wrong. Mainly because mine won’t try something new unless they see me eat it first! I also give them grass clippings. They love fresh grass.Hiya!! Just wondering what treats you give to your birds and how often? I give my chickens corn and leftovers but I'm really interested to see what you give them as we need to get some new treats for them!
Thanks!!!
