Chicken Treats

For a farm with dogs and hens, Sniff and Shift makes treats for the dogs, while the treats for the flock on this page come from other makers.

Treats for a backyard flock come in a few familiar groups: dried mealworms, black soldier fly larvae, scratch grains and seed or fruit blends. Mealworms and larvae are the ones hens come running for, which is handy when the flock needs calling in at dusk. Compare listings by the bag size, the main ingredient and whether the bag is a single item or a blend. Bags that are easy to scoop make daily use simple. For a larger animal around the yard, pig treats is the next stop.
