Scratch is a mix of cracked grains. At those temps, I'd be offering them plenty of whole kernel corn.

Yes! Yes! Yes! They need the heat the corn generates in their bodies.

crazy chicken for a treat...sounds good?

If you look at my pics, you'll see that the Pekin ducks have a yellow caste to their feathers. This is from the corn they get. They are pure white in the summer. They do have a heat lamp in their house but the walls are not insulated so unless they are right under it it isn't doing much good. I make sure mine have a bowl of Wild Game Food available to them. It has whole kernal corn in it as well as a bunch of other whole grains. Pricey but worth it to me.

So I won't freak out now, thinking we've got some strange disease, when my geese begin to turn yellow )

Lol! Them not so much. It's funny, you'd think they'd do the same thing as the ducks. Hey if they do, let me know! I think yellow geese would be neat!

 

[sandipuppy]
