PeggySue1 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Hi all, has anyone used dog toys for their hens to play with? I was thinking about the big kong toys, but was concerned about them pecking at the rubber? Any other suggestions would be good. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggy-Bread Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 I've used bird toys rather than dog ones - the ones you can get for budgies and the like. I hung a little mirror and a bell up in the run. The girls do like to check their make-up before a days work Unfortunately they seem scared by the tiny bell but I can't get it off as it's rusted in place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falkor Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 We have one on these It is a rabbit/guines pig treat ball. It gets loaded with layers pellets and thrown in the run......I really need to get another one actually as one ball to 14 hens will be a riot!

shibby69 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Ours have a few of those too, they enjoy them with corn in . They also have blank cd's hung up with string, they like pecking at them or just watching them when the sun shines on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
