Broken Corn

It called 'cracked' corn not 'broken' corn.

as if my chickens would ever leave any lol

i'm calling it broken corn from now on.

Errrr, broken corn isnt a replacement for a coop. Your chickens will still require somewhere safe and dry.

Broken Corn & Cracked Wheat
Pros: Good Price & healthy (Non-gmo)

We started the girls on the broken corn and cracked wheat at the beginning of Fall in September. All the girls took very well to it and their egg production has increased to 5 eggs out of 8 layers to 7 out of 8 layers per day. The food is more filling because it does not break down so fast. And I read that it keeps them warmer. We do add an oyster shell to the mix for calcium.

Broken Corn with wheat and millet mix

Pros: Good price and my chickens go crazy for it. I feed it to them in the cooler months. When it starts getting warmer again, I start feeding them other things as treats instead.

Cons: It will mold in the container that you put it in unless you place it somewhere that no dampness or moisture can effect it.

I've always heard it called "cracked corn".

I wouldn't say it's "good", but it's a nice treat.

I got some from my friend Jimmy.

Can chicks also start eating cracked corn a 2weeks of age?

I wouldn't feed it in excess, i feed nothing but chick starter for about 6 weeks.
