Broccoli is one of my chicken's favorites. I bought a bag of oats and my chickens have been enjoying them along with watermelons, tomatos, cantaloupe and yellow squash.
cantaloupe guts, butternut squash guts, corn tortillas, and lettuce scraps. They ate everything but the squash guts.
Some days it is hard to decide what to give the chickens, and what to send on to the feeder hogs. Everything gets eaten. What my chickens leave on the ground during free range time, the wild turkeys come in and clean up.
Today I got a bright idea to mix sticky white rice with the powder from their chick food. They loved it. Usually I mix it yogurt but thought I'd try rice. It made rice nutritional and gave them a change.
I broke an apple for the pigs, and thought... hmmmmmmm... walked in with half an apple in each hand.. just about got bowled over by 15 excited chickens... I didn't realize that Jonathon Apples with a few worms would be such a hit!!
