What feed to give a mixed flock of chickens?

[rosemarythyme]

Aside from feeds, give your flock at least 10% of treats per day especially treats that have calcium to help your chicken lay eggs with strong eggshells.

General recommendation is less than 10% of their diet in treats a day. Calcium supplements like oyster shell don't count into that.

I use hatched chick egg shells and cuttle fish bone combined with natural rock salts. I clean the raw materials then dry throughly and finally grind it to flour like soft powder. I then place the powder in capsules and feed each one 1 capsule every 1 to 2 weeks. The supplementary capsules I make are extremely effective and must only be used in prescribed doses. I also sell them to local and different city veterinarian clinics. For a good price. It also works for humans but further human testing is required.

Originally I used to use shell grit boxes filled with egg shells and oyster shells. But that was a waste of time space and resources. The calcium capsules I sell are easier to use guaranteed to work and are very profitable.
