    "Nature Smart" chicken feed...

    I hate to bring back an old thread but can the nature smart chick grower 20% protein be fed to adult hens with oyster shell provided separately or is this to much protein? My birds are 9 weeks old now but would like to stay on one feed. I have been using natures best starter grower 18% protein...

    I have tried to go to rensaca's website but keep getting errors and can not load their home page. Guess I need to call them and try their food and see for myself. I am really tired of all the dust in the natures best starter/grower. Might just be because of the large bag sizes.

    Rain hat for saturn 15 feeder

    Ok this might be a dumb question but I got a saturn 15 feeder for my chickens and it works great except today it rained. I have the feeder under the nesting box of one of my coops but the rain hat that comes with it just protects the food inside. The food on the outside got wet as the rain hat...

    Ok I know this has most likely been asked a bunch of times but I am currently feeding my chicks Dumors organic chick starter. Mostly cause that is what TSC had readily available and organic. Now I do not know much about the good or bad about corn and soy but I would like to know what organic...
