What are your chooks favourite treats?

[Titsalinabumsquash]

My girls used to love a handful or 2 of corn once a day, then DP brought home some live mealworms and crickets, they went mad for them!
I got a bag of dried mealworms for them which they love and now they're not fussed about boring old corn.

Dried meal worms are expensive...

They like fruit and veg but in more of a casual way.

Does anyone's feathered friends have a particular delicacy they go mad for or does anyone know where I can get the worms cheaper in bulk?

If you have a local fishing shop they often do mealworms cheaper than usual.
Amazon also sell 5l tubs of dried worms for £15ish

I didn't think of fishing places! I'll have a look, thanks

I have just given my lot a bowl of yoghurt after hearing its a treat for them, they don't seem keen.

Oh yes mine will do anything for mealworms. If I go into the garden shed they jump up on their coop so that they can look in the window and see if I'm getting them some mealworms .
They also go mad over noodles and spaghetti.

Mine fight over their breakfast: uncooked porridge oats mixed with kefir.

Was actually having this conversation last night with friends... Theirs go mad for noodles and spaghetti too. Also one said half a pumpkin kept theirs happy for a week, seeds and all.

Pumpkins/squash/courgette type things go for ages ( finally a reason to grow courgettes). Strawberries were going well but think they are getting bored now as we had a run of slugged strawberries for them

Mine love grapes and sweet corn on the cob

Ours love corn on the cob too. The new chooks (known as the zombies due to their blue/grey legs) fight with the rabbit for it. Mrs Welsummer is less bothered, but comes running for mixed corn

Mine love raisins and other dried fruit. If I find goosegrass when I'm out walking I bring a few armfulls back - they've stripped our garden bare (pity they don't do the same to nettles!)

Mine love daisies, but also get excited if they are thrown the end of a garlic baguette.

Spiral pasta, tins of value sweetcorn, cherry tomatoes and couscous or rice with chickpeas mixed in - they love picking out the chickpeas and hurling them round the coop! They love a cabbage to chase too.

Mine all love yoghurt with brown breadcrumbs mixed in, and marmite porridge in the winter.

Ham. It's like chocolate to them

Oh yes, a cabbage suspended on a rope about 1ft off the floor.
They love knocking it backwards an forwards whilst they try and eat it!

corn on the cob tied to a string and hung up, earwigs and woodlice, cabbage, BLUEBERRIES, cheese (very infrequent, not good for them IMO), sunflower seeds, wheat seeds.

Sweetcorn.

Catfood/mince

lettuce - mine go loopy for it! (wish they'd take the same approach to the dandelions in my garden!).

Dried mealworms. I get mine on eBay - big sack which lasts for ages.

Mine go mad for dandelion leaves! Apples and corn are also very popular. Oh yes and if I throw in a couple of earthworms they practically fall over themselves trying to be the first to get to them

Sunflower seeds, they will fight each other to get them!

corn on the cob
peas
grapes
banana
peeled apple (fussy!)
peeled cucumber (they really dont like the skin)
marmite on.toast as a rare treat

I'm new to this chicken keeping thing and was excited about all the treats I'd give them but they seem pretty uninterested in everything I put in their run! I've only had them a couple of weeks so wondered if it was a settling in thing? Or do I just try everything and see what floats their boats? So far I've tried peeled cucumber, figs, lettuce, corn, corn on the cob, broccoli and baked potato skin. I'm getting a bit fed up of fishing things out of their run every day!

Any ideas?

Mine love tomatoes! Sometimes boiled egg as a special treat.

Dried mealworms for sure. I recently bought a large tub in B&M homestores - as you do!

Watermelon, pasta and rice.

BOILED EGGS???? Seriously?
