What treat did your chickies get today?

[Stephanie R]

Just wondering do chickens eat acorns? A friend of mine said that his birds eat acorns so I tossed all of the acorns around my yard into the chicken pen so they could eat them, but they just sat there and the chickens didn't eat them.

My coop is in an oak grove and the girls are exposed to lots of acorns. They pay them no mind whatsoever.

Today was a Greek yogurt overload, they of course spread equal amounts throughout their feathers and face as they actually consumed...

If anyone is curious that is just shy of 300 containers...

Wow! Where did you get 300 containers of yogurt? My girls will not eat yogurt.

Today mine got red grapes, squash, shredded carrots, corn, the breakfast I didn't have time to eat: oatmeal and chia seeds along with their usual greens. Feeling bad they only spent one hour outside so I scattered treats in the yard and they ran around like mad. So much fun to see their gate!

Well I certainly didn't buy it for them at the $1 or so a piece they sell for...

I have an arrangement with a local grocery store and to take away some of their day old and/or expired produce, bread and sometimes dairy before it goes in the dumpster...

Yesterday they had all this yogurt available so I grabbed it as my birds love yogurt...

Yesterday my girls got apple, cucumber, lettuce, cabbage and sunflower seeds.

My girls will not eat yogurt.

Dip their beaks in it, then they will realise they LOVE it and will go crazy.
