    What to feed non-laying hens?

    Ya, we've used that in the past for my banties, but we don't really need all of the extra calcium and protein for eggs now.. is there any generic poultry feed with no extra supplements... plus their free range so they get a lot of "yummies" from the grass too. thanks!

    What to feed non-laying hens?

    We have a flock of non-laying, older hens. They haven't layed well in a couple of years, and the feed we have been giving them (layer crumble) is getting a little too expensive. There is NO WAY we are going to get rid of them, but they need a new feed. What can we still give them for nutrition...

    chicks dying one by one

    I got mine on thursday. we've lost 4 so far. Its pretty common for chicks (not just mail order) to pass during their first week. Could be stress, breeding problems, sickness, or just weak birds. Are they bantams? Bantams need different feed and are a lot more fragile. I'm so sorry, I understand!
