Some advice please.
Just by pure chance yesterday we dropped a couple of grapes whilst walking through the chickens and they just went totally crazy for them and they lasted a couple of seconds before all eaten.
Is it OK for them to have grapes? acidic ,etc. I know they devour the odd ones but I would like to know that it will not do them any harm.
Your input/advice would very much be appreciated.

the odd grape is fine just not too many as they are a treat

They will love them occasionally

Also good method for disguising meds.

When ours rushed out and jumped into the post van, we were amazed until the post lady admitted that she brought them grapes. It started with one cheeky hen, but after a while she was feeding all 15. Embarrassing or what?

   Great story!  I hope the post lady doesn't regret what she has done!  When she forgets to bring the grapes and they start ripping open all the Christmas parcels to find them, she may wish she had never started!

Yes, they'll kill for grapes! My cockerel will stand back and let the girls have their fill of treats before he gets some but not when its grapes on offer, it's every man for himself then.

Mine go bonkers for grapes which I chop up and put in their tea time mash (I got tired if being assaulted if I had them in my hand)! Their other favourite occasionally is a very ripe banana mashed into warm mash for tea!
