Fresh grass and greens are an important part of a hens diet. Greens are what give the eggs the important Omega3. Since our girls don’t get to free range much we supplement their commercial feed with fresh greens. The girls love love to nibble on lettuce, spinach, kale and swiss chard. We put several leaves in a small suet cage and hang it from the hen house. Not only are the greens good for them but batting around the suet cage like a tether ball gives them something to do.
