All of our animals are very spoiled when it comes to treats, the chickens aren't the most obedient animals in the barn, but throw them some mealworm & corn party mix and they come running!
Tig and Chibs also have a party mix, but they prefer Beachside Crunch. These two learned about treats in record time and are big fans!
The horses don't realize that their treats are actually good for them, but we swear by Probios for healthy digestion. Denali also gets one of these a day, in addition to her many treats in the house :)
The horses are also extra spoiled and often get apple treats from my Mom and mints from my Dad. All of our horses are "wrapper trained" and can hear a mint being opened from across the pasture.
Being such a popular place, I always have a lot of help when I'm scooping feed. Tonight was especially crowded!
Tig was very interested in what I was doing and had to check out each bucket that was scooped.
Chibs decided to sample a bit of Dolly's mini feed.
Chibs moved on to check Sadie's bucket while Tig checked out the feed ball.
Denali waited patiently for her treat in between her "who gets to stay in the feed room" game with Lady Mary.

Mary won this round, such a tough little bird!

After sampling all of the feed, the cats decided the senior feed was their favorite.

There's also lots of good spots to take a little "cat nap" when you have a full belly.
Getting all the animals out of the feed room is always tricky, but that's where the treats come in!
They're all tucked in for the night, but they'll be waiting patiently in the morning to do it all again.
