Feeding Guidelines:
Daily feeding amounts vary depending on multiple factors including the age and health of your hens, climate conditions, day length, breed characteristics, access to free-range pasture, and molting status. While there is no fixed rule, expect to feed between 80-150g per day per bird.
Traditional Feeding Approach:
Grain-based feeds supplemented with household scraps and pasture foraging provide the traditional diet that remains an excellent option, especially as it encourages optimal gut health. While birds love grain, it's critical to understand that grains alone are deficient in vitamins and minerals. Therefore, a grain-based diet must be supplemented to ensure good health and production. Access to green feeds and pasture is often sufficient supplementation.
