Sarah M Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Ooops My OH gave ours a piece of orange yesterday ! They both left it though. Mine go crazy for sweetcorn and pasta of any shape..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lera Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Mine eat strawberries with delight and will also scratch up the strawberry plants if they get half a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura007 Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I love it when they do that Phil. The ultimate beak-wipe food is mash potato - we always make a little bit too much so we can watch them eat it. Beware though,one of mine got cheeky & started wiping her beak on my jeans leg mine wipe there beaks on mine aswell, also they try scratching at my toes like they are digging for grubs and bugs!

Conkers Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 My neighbour was chicken sitting for us when we were away, and she told me afterwards that she was down on her knees dead-heading my petunias, and all she could hear was the sound of "beak sharpening" behind her bum! Obviously she didn't feed them enough grapes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnieP Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Mine love tinned sweetcorn, thrown in direct from the tin, but they prefer raw corn still on the cob. Gives them a bit of exercise too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
