The Dogmother Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 This'll make you laugh.... I've been trying my girls out on some different dried treats; they usually get the Smallholder Super Mixed Corn ( the one with all the peas and lentils in) mixed with some dried meal worms, but I wanted to try something different, but still high-protein. Excuse the out of focus pics, but it's hard to get a really tight shot when you're being mobbed by chooks! Here's how it went... Daphnia They quite liked that Sand fleas (like little shrimps) They LOVED those Wax worm thingies... and water flies Not such a success... and I don't blame them either - they didn't look too nice. Soooo... sand fleas it is then! It was quite funny watching how they preferred some things and not others, but they deffo mobbed me for those sand fleas.
