Luvachicken Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I went to the garden centre yesterday and in their chicken bit they had a very nice vegetable holder. It had a red top and springy body and you put any veg through the lid. BUT it was 14.99 I though that was quite expensive, but my Mum did offer to buy it for me but I decided it was still expensive so she didn't. It was a proper make - the name I can't remember - something like happy chicken company ? Has anyone got one ? I thought I might put it on my Christmas List, as by then all 5 (2+3) chickens should be playing nicely together and I thought this might be big enough for them to all fit round / under Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabe smallholder Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Sounds expensive but perhaps a perfect thing to pop on a Christmas list! Not sure my girls would appreciate it though. In the last week I have hung an apple in a springy holder, not touched, chopped it up and hung it in the feeder, still not touched. Hung greens, nope, tried a Pecka block, er still nope, and the boredom busting cds... Not a chance! Think I have weird chickens!!

Redwing Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 these sound similar maybe? http://www.gardening-naturally.com/acatalog/Birdspring_and_Fatball.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 these sound similar maybe? http://www.gardening-naturally.com/acatalog/Birdspring_and_Fatball.html It is similar in that it is springy, but the thing I saw was much bigger and didn't need manhandling to get anything in. I do have one of those for my garden birds but find it quite hard to fill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs_B Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Is this it? http://www.thepetexpress.co.uk/uncategorized/feathers-and-beaky-vegetable-holder The fact you can take the lid off to pop food in looks really handy, but I agree it's quite expensive! Looks a great size, though, so maybe a Xmas present idea would be a good idea x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chortle Chook Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I think these look excellent and I really want to get one for my chickens. For some reason my chickens have got rather on the heffty side (chubby chooks indeed) so OH and I have decided that they need to work a bit more for their treats rather then having them dished up in convenient saucers. I can just about justify the cost of these things to myself but the P&P of nearly £4 on a c£14.00 item is pushing it. Does anyone know where I can buy one in the real world, rather than online?
