beach chick Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 my girls love grapes, but Tara and Paris are always quicker off the mark, so I have devised a special technique. - stand in middle of lawn - throw 1 grape in 1 direction, followed by the other 3 in the other 3 directions, aiming them as closely as poss to the slower 2 birds... - wait for them to come back for round 2 - repeat as necessary! and of course you get the bonus of watching them do the funny old lady with poor knicker elastic run!!!

cutechicky Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Thats quite a handy teqnique. Apart from my hens won't seperate. There are only two of them and since hatching, have never walked within two feet from each other. It is kinda difficult for me as Kiwi always gets the food! If I want them to get fair shares I will always have to hand feed them next to each other! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I do the same kind of thing with my two - grapes going off in all different directions but it's especially useful at worming time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
