I use 20% Nutrena Naturewise All Flock Pellets, & Purina 20% Flock Raiser with oyster shells on the side. I have roosters, & none layers, so the excess calcium would be harmful.I use layer feed with 16% protein. The guineas eat 18% protein and he occasionally conducts a raid on their feed but he never gets more than a few pellets. Is there some specific brand that you use or are they all based on the same protein and it doesn't matter? We have been using it for years and our chickens always looked beautiful.
I just ordered the first two- since they share a common feed source, will it be okay for the hens if I am adding this for Billy?I supplement mine with Kick'n Chicken, Rooster Booster-Poultry Cell, or some Nutridrench once in awhile.

Layer feed is high in calcium. It's formulated specifically for high Production layers, like Isa Browns, Golden Comets, other Red Sex-link or layer hybrids, & Leghorns.Sorry, just saw your last reference to calcium. Is that heavy in something specific you've mentioned?
Not my chickens. But the quality of their feathers do get less ‘sparkling’. And each molt the feather pattern changes a bit.Do chickens go "gray" when they are older?

They get organic feed most of their lives.
Yikes, I just always gave it to all of my hens. I had no idea it was specific to certain hens. So, if I have a flock with hens and Billy, what is the best feed you would recommend? I really can't separate their food sources.Layer feed is high in calcium.
