Hi

Does anyone have a 'recipe' to make your own 'pecker blocks' for hens? I've bought some for mine in the past and they're rather expensive.

They are the hard doner-kebab shaped things made with corn and are hung up to give the hens something to play with.

Thank you in advance
 
Ours like regular bird 'fat balls'. We just throw one in and they chase it around until it's gone. Making that sort of thing is generally more expensive as the ingredients are often 'food standard'

Hi Ray, Brilliant idea, thank you. Our hens like 'fun' so I may hang one up, just out of their reach, they will enjoy jumping! Happy Christmas :)
