Did you know that chickens' love pasta?Well ours do and we like to give them some as an occasional treat.
You do have to be a bit careful though, because they can become so partial
to carbs that they won't want to eat their layers pellets and egg production
will go down. So it's a good idea to give each of them a handful of layers pellets
in the morning before serving treats.
Of course this doesn't apply to the chicks who will be on chick crumb.

I have heard this before ... must be sure to tell my chicken-keeping friends - isn't pasta versatile!!!

The favorite dish of my parents' chickens is leftover pasta with meat sauce and cheese - and if it is leftover chicken meat, they like it even better, cannibalistic little beasts.
Don't forget sweetcorn cobs, if that's something you eat - that's a huge favorite here.
Oh, chickens eat pasta too. That's very interesting. Over here, our chickens eat rice too.
