So far just watermelon and feed, but I also have planned ice chips, cold grapes and then worms right before bed they go happier to bed that way and don't fight as much lol

I like to mix my treats that I give them with some water and some of their feed crumbles, to make sure that they are getting extra water and eating the feed too. Today I mixed in a couple of spoonfuls of some low fat cottage cheese, some electrolytes, and some of the ACV.

Bread and grass

Gave them one grape cut in half. And the chase was on!

Can you feed your chickens any of those commercially produced suet cakes they sell?

They're ok as an occasional treat in cold weather. They are mostly fat, not much protein. A better & healthier treat would be black oil sunflower seeds (BOSS).

A plate of soaked feed and a big clump of dandelion, grass, dirt.....and after work they'll get some outside time (run still under construction so it's only an option when I'm thete to supervise the little buggers (1-4 week olds)
