What are you chickens' favourite foods? Whatever they are - worms, lettuce etc.  :D
It'll be interesting to see if different flocks of chickens like different foods etc.  :)

Raspberries have been very popular.

Mine have all got their individual preferences - of course they will all eat whatever is offered with gusto (as long as broccoli is cooked, not raw!) but Edna in particular loves self caugh protein from the garden - to the point she mobs you as soon as she sees you with garden implement in hand as it obviously means worm time!  Tomatoes and grapes do seem to induce the most rugby scrum type behaviour though (at the moment anyway)!
