Hello! I have 26 chickens. 10 buff Orpington (2 male). 10 black Australorp (1 male) and 6 bantam silkie (2 male). They are 11 weeks old. I’ve been feeding them fermented food since I got them at days old. At 8 weeks started letting them free range a few hours on 11 acres, now they are outside most of the day. And they always seem SO hungry. I feed them 4 cups of fermented feed a day and snacks of mealworms in the evening to get them inside. Sometimes when I go in their run without food they peck me like they’re mad. Should I be feeding them more?? I really want them to be mainly free range. So I’m not sure how to get to that with out making them angry lol pics for cuteness.
