pipistrelle Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I'm sure I remember someone posting that their chickens ate corn on the cob fresh? I've just bought a lovely treat skewer and some fresh cobs but when putting them in the run my girls are doing that " and this is what exactly?" thing that chickens do so well Will they eat it once they're sure it's not going to attack them or should I be cooking it first? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Mine eat them crazily. But it can be a bit too much everyday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 They should get the hang of it once one is brave enough to have a taste . Mine love them raw or cooked (but hated the dried ones from Pets at Home ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henhathnofury Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Fear was their first response but they soon learn. They do - being lazy - prefer them cooked. But they will eat them raw too. Try and sprinkle some loose sweetcorn over the top and hopefully even a small brain will connect the two! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
