Chooks favourite treat?

[itsmeonhen]

I thought it would be good fun to hear what your Chickens really really really like so to kick off this thread, here's what we have found so far:

An apple makes them go daft - one grabs it and the rest give chase like a benny hill type of caper....... I'll need to get a video of this cause it's got to be worth £250 on you've been framed!

Live yoghurt mixed with corn and poultry spice or diatom.
I get mugged by them when I step out of the workshop with this cocktail

Mealworms, earthworms and blueberries are my girls top 3.

Pasta, definitely pasta!! Spaghetti also favourite and great fun to watch them eat - running all over the place trying to stop it being stolen!!

They did go nuts for three mornings when I administered verm-x by mixing it with pureed apple, a little water and layers pellets. Made a lovely wet mash that they dashed out for and scoffed in record time!

Great way to make sure they all had some of the verm-x!!

Absolutely anything!! The pasta frenzy however is worth staying to watch!!

Along with 'all the above' I am growing beetroot this year and every day I pull off a few leaves and break up the stems for them to share. They absolutely love them.

My ladies like grapes, tomatoes, pasta and rice best. Think the pasta is the all time favourite though.

Not seen them in action with any frogs...............yet............wouldnt like to watch that I dont think...........YUK!

Tinned sweetcorn !! They go mad for it.

Snails and slugs go down a treat (haven't seen them with a frog) Live giant mealworms, pasta (usually spaghetti), any green leaves from the allotment. Grapes, tomatoes. my Mrs's toes she really must stop wearing sandals into the run.
