tracyann Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Hi all, just wanted to pick your knowledgeable brains... I've not had growers before, and have my new 12 week old girlies. I have a sack of growers pellets, but wondered when I should start introducing corn etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julia W Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I have given my girls corn from the first day they arrived in late May. I usually go up at around 3pm and sit on one of the logs in the run and feed them a handful from my hand. It's a way of them getting to know me and trust me, Girtie has become very brave and tame as sometimes she jumps up on my lap. I love the time with them. One day I was a bit short of time and decided to throw the corn on the ground but they wouldn't leave me alone until I fed them by hand. I give them dried mealworms from time to time as a treat later in the day too and they get greens a few times a week too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
