I suppose they all do. ...My girls love apples too. I suppose they all do. I was using my Pampered Chef Chopper and bringing out an apple every morning, and then suddenly they stopped laying eggs!! Apparently, they should only have a tiny bit once in a while as a treat. When I asked my gals down at the feed store how much to give, she said to grate some apple and bring it out once or twice a week as a treat. But if you do it every day, or too much of the apple they will eat that over their regular diet and stop laying. So, she says for her whole flock of two dozen or so chickens, she grates an apple up and they share it. So just be careful how much and how often. Although, I think your girls are quite young and perhaps have not reached laying age yet. I have two who lay, and 5 who are just about to reach laying age. Love their names by the way.<br />Mine are, Lucy and Ethel...aka The B's. Then the little ones are, Ham, Sammy, Tillie, Beatrice, and Chicka. My grand kids named them!<br />Happy Saturday to you!Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15578853096888320012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1610186654476966089.post-88894088558980384062011-08-06T07:52:41.970-07:002011-08-06T07:52:41.970-07:00Your gals are so very lucky....you are a wonderful...Your gals are so very lucky....you are a wonderful chicken mother!!Bee Haven Bevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10003927601786061426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1610186654476966089.post-57479955690089531852011-08-06T07:20:10.144-07:002011-08-06T07:20:10.144-07:00Aren't you clever!

Now you'll have to find out if they prefer one type of apple over another. Is that a rice cake hanging there with the clothes pin?Betsy@My Salvaged Treasureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18120247339822621125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1610186654476966089.post-504572764897330492011-08-06T06:41:59.557-07:002011-08-06T06:41:59.557-07:00It pays to be a chicken in your house!!It pays to be a chicken in your house!!Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622919657309096651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1610186654476966089.post-11739070133432809502011-08-06T06:13:37.334-07:002011-08-06T06:13:37.334-07:00OH!!! your girls are so lovely and beautiful feath...OH!!! your girls are so lovely and beautiful feathers too.
