Hello,
How does chicken ration affect the nutritional composition of the egg. I understand that by adding fish oils you can increase the omega fatty acid content of an egg but what of the standard composition? If rather than using a standardized layer ration you made your own with perhaps a barley or wheat base how would this affect the eggs nutritional composition?
Should the homemade layer feed be sampled and tested for it's composition?
Just curious how to best go about building a ration while still respecting the nutritional standards and bird health.
Thanks in advance.
