What treat did your chickies get today?

[Frost Homestead]

today my FIL went to the grocers and got two big boxes of 'old' veggies. we chopped it all up and tossed it on top of the compost pile for the chickens to rummage through. They got cantaloupe, avocado, spinach, grapefruit, apples, oranges, eggplant, and squash! can you say happy chickens?

Bowtie pasta, tomatoes, broccoli, collard greens(their favorite)

 

[Rileysixchix]

Bread, Pears, crushed egg shells, peppers, and some old cheerios. They love snack time!

Grapes and wheat seeds.

Funny... I threw some dried plain uncooked white rice out there today, and they had a blast... Must have thought they were frozen meal worms or such.... Then they proceeded to scratch out all the mulch around my shrubs... again.

Scratch, oatmeal with green peas added, w/w bread, romaine lettuce, tomatoes, mealworms. and of course their FR.

Live crickets....................it looked like a rodeo!

I raise crickets for my frogs and I was cleaning out the bins. I got tired of sorting the live from the sheds, so the chickens got to chase them around.

I thought birds weren't supposed to have avocado? I've always heard it was toxic to them.
