4Clucks-minusOne Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 My girls have suddenly got an aversion to red cabbage. I went to put half in last week and you'd think I was putting in a foxes head . They flapped up to the eglu end of the run and wouldn't come down to the door. I even scattered some dried oats for them but they wouldn't come near. So I took it out and they came for the oats. This week I gave them some green cabbage leaves with a red edging and had the same response. I hid some spaghetti in between the leaves which I tried to tempt them with. In the end I left them in. They did come down later but ate some as well as throwing some into their water glug. They have also gone off eating corn. Is it just a phase?

C&T Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 They are so temperamental with food! Mine are totally non plussed with corn. Used to love, now I have a sack that I am slowly getting through by feeding to the wid birds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mostin Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 My girls do have strong likes and dislikes, but they've never gone off something once they've started to like it , how odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
