debbie26pet Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 with halloween coming up, my kids love to do the pumpkins, s"Ooops, word censored!" them out and put a face on it. can the bits the kids s"Ooops, word censored!" out, can the chickens have it?, and then when they finished with the pumpkin itself let the chickens have a dig around in it?

KAZAROO Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I give my hens marrow-cooked and squash; so I cant see there being any problems? I also give mine Black sunflower seeds which they love and hulled sunflower seeds as a special "taming" treat.... Slugs also love Black sunflowers seeds- but it kills them! So its good if you have lots of slugs inn a chicken free zone.... http://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=1030173 SOME CHICKEN RECIPES- BUT OTHER PEOPLE SAYING THEY FEED SQUASHES....
