alex_m Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I have only had my girls for a few weeks. Whenever I try a treat in the afternoon they seem to turn their nose up and go back to the pellets. I've tried grapes, cherry tomatoes, shreaded carrot, lettuce. mashed potato. Sweet corn. Is it because they're still young and they develop a taste for veggies as they get older? or shall I just give up lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 When I got my original girls they didn't have a clue about veg treats, they have developed a much more varied diet as they have got older. Mine still don't bother with tomatoes, but eat most other fruits and veg. My newbies took a couple of weeks too but they saw the older ones eating everything and soon caught on.

fluffyknickers Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Mine were not interested really until they were laying and now i cannot touch the kitchen door as they all run to the netting and make loud noises til I come out with something.

Chucky Mama Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Ours are very fussy but have come round to some things that they didn't used to eat. Favs are mealworm & corn on the cob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 My new girls were only interested in grapes at first but now they're in with the big girls and have started laying they love most treats (except broccoli). so dont give up - they'll soon appreciate it !!
