I wouldn't think my chickens could eat enough bees to make a difference. I have two acres of land, but the ideal site (direct sun and wind protection) for the bees is near the chickens.
I am wanting to start a couple hives of bees in the spring. I would like to put the bees near the chicken yard. Are there any issues I should be aware of?
How soon is it safe to start chickens on a layer diet? I have mixed ages. 18 wks and 9 wks. I have been told that extra calcium in layer feed may not be good for the younger hens. What to do?!
