Hey
I’ve heard of chicken cake recipes that hens can eat I was wondering if you guys have any good one
My EE is turning 10 years old next month and I was hoping to do something special for her
 
I have no recipe but have fed mine a normal size human wedge. Not a common thing. I don't do this often.

I make a cake out of their regular feed (crumble) with a bit of scratch mixed in, mixed with water to a clumpy consistency. I press it into a bowl and then dump it on a tray, the way you'd make a sand castle out of a bucket, and it has an instant cake shape thanks to the bowl. Then I decorate with their favorite fruits. They love it! And I don't have to worry about nutrition, since it's just their regular feed with some treats added to it, and not a whole new thing. Most of my chickens are Orpingtons of various colors, and they are prone to obesity, so I avoid most treats and definitely would not feed them actual cake or anything with flour or other grains, because my little gluttons already weigh like cannonballs as it is.
