Oh about three months ago I received three babies, that I thought were Crele Orpingtons, but as it turned out, are Partridge Orpingtons.
I was a little disappointed, but I still love them. They are getting very big. Well, for their age I think they’re big.
So they’ve had their first days outside. And they are pretty much having a great time. However I am asking the everyone on the BB to answer the Ultimate Chicken Mystery (UCM).
What on earth are they eating when they peck the ground?
Now, don’t think I’m hopelessly stupid; I realize when they are pecking green stuff, they are eating grass, moss, whatever. It’s when they are pecking just the dirt. I cannot see seeds or arthropods, worms, nor ants. They peck the tree bark with glee...
So, please enlighten everyone. WHAT ON EARTH ARE THEY EATING.
