When I got my ex battery hens, the lady advised me to give them warm porridge in the winter to keep out the cold. I did this last year with the addition of some dried fruit and honey. This is a wonderful insulator against the cold, but should I give them their layers pellets first and give it as an afternoon treat, or give it first thing in the morning as porridge is intended to be eaten? Any Scots chicken keepers out their?
