hi I have three EE's, one Andalusian and one mixed unknown game hen that are all close to three months old.
They have been switched to growers feed from the chick mash.... how much should they eat each day? I had the silver feed trays with the rotating bar on top but they keep kicking lots of dirt and poop into it making me dump food out and refilling them....kind of wasteful but more sanitary at least to me.... yesterday I built one custom feeder(then a second one even taller once they ate from it) which I thought would consume less food in the long run since its harder for them to fill it with dirt.
to my surprise they ate all the feed in both feeders in less than 24hrs.......how much should five 3month old birds consume each day?....they also got some treats(tomatoes, parsley, grass) but not in large amounts
thanks
