I have a lot to learn when It comes to raising backyard chickens. We will be moving into a new home soon and then I will start my adventure with chickens.
I would like to feed them organically, and have read various things about feeding chickens. Do most people feed their chickens formulated feed (like Manna Pro) or do they make their own food for the chickens? Are chickens so destructive that they would eat a garden or the plants in a garden? Wouldn't it be a good idea to put them in a chicken tractor during the day, or do they need more freedom? How much of whatever food is given, do chickens get per day, and are they fed in the morning or another part of the day? What are some recommended brands of chicken feed?
