Pumpkin Carving experts.
On Instagram I noticed a Chicken pumpkin carving challenge -so I tried. It works! Lol. You start to carve the pumpkins then leave them in the coop for the chickens (& ducks) to continue. Carving they did! Always amusing to watch - it’s also entertaining for the birds. We put in two pumpkins; roasting the seeds from one later today, and the chickens & ducks took over.
Seeing a chicken or duck with its head stuck in a pumpkin is funny, pulling out occasionally with a face (beak) full of pumpkin guts & a look of content, of course - who doesn’t like pumpkins.
Winter is on the way & the birds will get a few treats -like squash and watermelon, bananas & strawberries, all summer as fruit starts to expire - I’ve been washing it in tiny chunks & stick it in a big container in the freezer- every few days they get a defrosted scoop of treats. My birds are ‘living the life.
Chickens will be the official pumpkin carvers from now on! Pumpkins spice eggs, anyone? Hee hee YUK, not a fan of pumpkin spice.
Happy Halloween for all celebrating! I hope the little ones (& big ones) have a halloween to remember with happy memories.
