Guilty Pleasures
As I believe I mentioned before, watching the chickens fight over food never gets old. So I am always looking for things to feed them. This really does two things. It lowers the cost of feeding these non-egg laying free loaders and it reduces the amount of trash headed to the landfill. So, when breakfast was done and there was still a bit of cheesy eggs left on the plate, I began to wonder if the chickens could eat them. Guess what?! It turns out they can. Man, does it feel wrong. But not wrong enough to stop me from giving them a plate of eggs.
Normally, the first chicken to see me coming with a plate food will try it and call the others over. Not this time. This greedy bird went to town on the eggs, barely pausing to breath. Now, I saw another bird or two wandering over but never saw another bird eating. What I do know is that unlike watermelon rinds which lasted the better part of a day, scrambled eggs last less than five minutes. These birds have no shame!
