What treat did your chickies get today?

That's good, have you given them the insides of the squash? mine love the seeds and guts of squash and pumpkin. Overgrown cucs from the garden too, cut them open and the love the insides.

I had the tiniest of summer squashes so there really was no squash guts to give them. I'll have to look for bigger ones next time at the farmer's market. They did seem far more keen on the yellow squash versus the green ones, I suppose the yellow color is more eyecatching.
 
Went through the fridge tonight and filled the chicken/goat bucket with produce past its prime. So tomorrow they're getting tomatoes, peaches, cherries, celery, cucumber, and lettuce.
 
Yesterday it was Peaches that fell off the tree and got soggy on the ground. There were lots of ants on them as an added bonus.
Today it's too chilly for them to go outside since they don't have all their feathers yet. I feel bad keeping them in the brooder so I'm going to buy them some butterworms or maggots which seen to be their favorite.
I thought about making a maggot farm but the smell....and I don't want to attract predators.
I'll just buy for now...lol
