(other than growers pellets, obviously...)
I am the proud new owner of 3 bantam hens, who I picked up on Saturday. My parents had hens after I'd left home, so I've looked after them sporadically, but these are the first that are my own
I'm not sure what else to feed them though, to make life a bit more interesting? I know once they're laying they like loads of random stuff as treats, but not sure what to give these? I tried them on some cut up cherry tomato yesterday, which DM's hens fight over, but mine just ignored it with distain... and sunflower seeds don't get that good a reaction either!
Are there any suggestions of what might go down well, or should I just stick to pellets and grass (while they haven't eaten it all) until they're a bit older?
TIA
