Noodles!

February 28, 2014 - Author: Fallen sky - No Comments

I have often seen photos of chickens with long spaghetti noodles hanging from their beaks, chasing each other around like its a prize, very hilarious. I often wondered if they’d choke with the long noodles, I assume the answer is no, as they’d eat a worm with little difficulty. But still I hesitated to feed them noodles. Then one day at a larger grocery store, I found the solution!

Alphabet Noodles! Who knew! I certainly didn’t. Clearly alphabet soup has been around for ages, but I never realized you could get the noodles. 89 cents a box.

I cooked some up this morning, and left them steaming hot, as it’s under 10 degrees here. They devoured them in 5 minutes, maybe less. Their combs were all bright red, an indication their blood is flowing into them, normally pale and dry looking in this bitter weather. Their crops were full and bulging. They were happy hens. Sorry no photo but I’ll bring my camera next batch!
