LOL I was thinking that same thing as I was planting my tomatoes. I go out every day and check for potato bugs, but so far not even one!!!!

Freezer burned ground beef for the big girls, Quaker oats for the little ones.

Chickens LOVE mealworms and crickets. I get both when I'm at the pet store. I've given them both the small mealworms and the big, juicy superworms and they go nuts for them. My three girls will gobble up a cup of 50 superworms in a matter of minutes. For a special treat, I put a thin layer of aspen shavings and hay into a shallow plastic litter box, then dump the entire cup of superworms--wheat bedding and all--into the litter box and mix everything up. The chickens get to play "treasure hunt".

Fresh lettuce from the garden, clover, cooked pasta, bread crumbs... oh, and yogurt. Yep, their spoiled!

We've been gardening and messing with weeding, watering, fetilizing and such... and when we do the girls all start walking the fence. They know if they will wait long enough one of us will find a big juicy grub worm, centipede or worm for them!

It's quite a sight to see!

LOL

Last night we let them free range around the back yard before putting them in their pen for the night. What a high time they had!

I'm in metro Atlanta and our weather started heating up good a couple of days ago, yesterday I gave them some chopped up frozen bananas. I already knew that they loved bananas, but they really liked the pop sickle style.

Buffs only

Yogurt and mealworms

They wait for their treats every morning!

My four chicklets are 6 weeks old - and this just their 3rd day with us

I've given them some treats each day - lettuce, banana, mango, yogurt - they haven't gobbled it up but they are curious about it and trying it.

June bugs that fell out of the sky last night. Kind of early I might add.
