We actually get our feed from the mill because we have close to 300+ layers, as well as exotics, so it’s a lot cheaper and also way better for them and plus we can keep an eye on what all goes in it and how much….
I never seen any of them pulling her feathers out either, and for the 2weeks she...
I’m not really sure where I should post this, because it’s not really an emergency, injury or anything of the like….

Thank you to all that replied…. We are new to raising chickens… my boyfriend surprised my 10yr old daughter and got her these from TSC and he is currently building the Taj Mahal of chicken coops out of his old horse stall lol…. Even if we do end up with multiple Roos, some of our coworkers...
