Ok so my girls started laying last week but question on best feed.
I have 7 hens of a verity of ages 17 - 32 weeks and 1 rooster. What's the best feed? They have oyster shell on the side to eat as they'd like and get black solider larva and mealworms snacks along with their current feed along with other treats regularly. But as far as staple crumble what is best for a flock like this? Stay on pullet feed or switch to layers? Or go with all flock?
I've heard layers feed can be bad for roosters or young pullets. But then I've heard it's to important for laying hens. So I'm a bit conflicted. Also guess I'll say each egg I've gotten so far has been in great shape with nice solid shell.
