  • Cluckies Xmas Dinner Treats

    How many peeps make up a Xmas dinner for their Chickens to eat on Xmas day, and what do you put in it?

    Mine have Porridge (made with water), Grapes, slices of apple, uncooked sprouts.
    No alcohol, TV and party music.

    Looking for something a little different this year.

    Even though it is served in their own bowls, it still ends up tipped over the floor, their feet, and porridge gets flicked everywhere----like small children.
    Why do they step into the bowls (not necessarily their own)?
    Feed the soil, not the plants.
    (helps if you have cluckies)

    Mine get nothing on xmas, i steal their eggs for the yorkshires your girls seem very spoiled, but who cares.
    Although mine get treated to something every day, might be half a melon or a lettuce or our leftovers always something, and the shout at me if they don't get anything
    I grow 70% for us and 30% for the snails, then the neighbours eats them

        Mine used to have the left overs from christmas dinner............

        they loved roast spuds & carrots, parsnips & basically everything scraped into the foil trays (used at christmas to save washing up) even bits of turkey & gravy which my DD was appalled at said it was like feeding them their cousins.....they didn't seem to mind

                My Christmas treat for my hens....

                Well they get treats all year round...so I have to confess...for Christmas they have their own Christmas star which I hang up in the hen house And of course, as I think I mentioned before, my girls cluck Christmas carols to their star every single evening....it's true

                  You can afford toast, AND beans?
                  Feed the soil, not the plants.

                      All the usual stuff really - string of led lights, nativity scene and tree, then a full xmas dinner minus turkey before settling down to watch the Queens xmas message

                        I'm afraid mine get treats all year so it's hard to make Christmas special for them. Their treat tomorrow is a freshly baked loaf of bread. Another one of my famous failures.

                            sorry I misunderstood, I thought you were after suggestions about making treats from chicken.

                            Mine get all the peelings the dogs get the left overs minus the sprouts for obvious reasons
