I'm new to this, just got my flock on Saturday.
They have adjusted well.
I noticed that if I throw a handful of there food on the coop floor, they go crazy pecking at it.
Can you guys tell me what is a good treat?
 
We mainly use popcorn. We found 50# bags at Sam's and we pop up a kitchen garbage can full every day and divide it out between the pens and the yard. They love it and it is all natural for them. Also helps cut down on the feed bill a bit and it has not hurt egg production one bit. But then they also get table leftovers and veggies and such. Our chickens are just "Pigs with Feathers"! Oh, and they really love watermellon.
 
Meal Worms - they go nuts for them! Also, mine love cantaloupe, seeds and all, plus other veggie scraps. I have read a lot of the threads here about feeding treats and most people say only the amount they can eat in 20 minutes.
