They love seeds of all kinds, especially sunflower seeds. If they don't like vegetables, try food-processing them to make them easier to eat - mine don't like whole vegetables either but they gobble them that way. You could try mixing a little spoon of yogurt in too.

scramble an egg or two for their protein...or give them a complete diet with chicken scratch, dry cat food (highest protein content you can find) and steamed beets. My birds love beets (leaves and all) chopped fine and mixed in with scrambled eggs...clean their plate!

They don't like meat

You have some very picky chickens! Mine will eat anything they're given. Like others have said, try some corn meal, instant oatmeal (cooked or uncooked w/o sugar) or even some bread crusts. Some people soak crusts in milk before feeding.

Bit of a worry that your chooks won't eat fruit, veg or meat. How about some dandelion leaves? Cooked leftover vegetables? Are they able to free range at all? At least free ranging they will find the things their bodies need. Mashed potato? Sweet corn? Tomatoes? My ex-batt was particulary fond of seafood sticks and grapes

Porridge on it's own will not give your chickens the nutrients they require, so you'll need to test out different things to find what will work. A starving chicken isn't going to refuse fruit or vegetables or even cooked meat.

Yes they are all day all night free rangers they don't get locked In the shed or anything and they have a big feild to roam in

If they have a big field they probably don't actually need much feed, do they? Lots of worms and grass and stuff

Have you tried giving them a little bit of raw mince? Mine LOVE that. Lamb is better than beef - less fat.
