We keep a "chicken bucket" in the kitchen and all veggie scraps go into that.
Our birds stay in their yard, so any and all "weeds" we pull from the garden go over their fence and are readily consumed.
Among those, the real "treats" are Chick Weed and Purslane.
They also get a generous scoop of scratch (cracked corn, barley, etc) every day and seem to relish it.
Not for the squeamish, but the one thing they go crazy over is the occasional mouse I manage to catch in their feed bins. They literally fight over who gets the "prize". :wee
Any mouse dumb enough to show up before curfew is like, :oops:
 
Brassicas have a mild toxin which really isn't a concern in moderation. My girls favorate veggies are broccoli & kale. They've never had an issue with it (I know many others feed Brassicas without issue).
I do never have a problem they love clover. When I mow the clover field I just open the gate and they fight over who Is first to go it's pretty funny. They hear the lawnmower and come running.

I like all the input from everyone here. I have a big Ninja blender and KitchenAid stand mixer with just about every attachment out there, never used and collecting dust, and they should allow me to experiment and come up with my own concoctions and treats. Thanks again for all your ideas. --BB
