riven Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I heard hens like this? Just bits of rind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hen Watch Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 When I've cut up a melon for my children, I give the hens the skin to peck at. They eat every last s"Ooops, word censored!" of melon flesh from the inside and leave the skins behind. They love melon pips even more...........

LunaKiw1 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Like Chicken Expert we let ours have left over rinds and they peck them clean and also adore the seeds. THey will, when given the chance, eat whole melon segments too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 My neighbour gives me watermelon and they love it. I also find bags of peelings, cabbages, cauliflower and all sorts on my fence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunshinesupernova Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I had a really naff melon last week. Totally tasteless and really dry. It didnt go to waste - put the whole thing out and the chooks demolished it - only the skin was left - looked like a burst football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
