Some of you may know that I recently took on 2 new wee corns, both of which had never eaten on their own since they hatched (now 5 months old).

Last night I thought I would try them with the chick thighs I chopped up the other week when preparing food for some of my others- and both ate their thighs, totally unassisted, in under 2 minutes.

Chick is brilliant stuff!

For some reason chick thighs are great for kick starting the feeding response . Don't know why, might be a good study!
