    Love leghorns, I keep Game Bantams and some barnyard mutts as well as the rescue girls. I barely need to feed the game breeds they only eat small amounts I think they even prefer foraging!

    Your Idea is similar to mine I was starting to think mine might starve , I usually only give a tiny bit more in winter as i don't get frosts and all the leaves of the winter veges go to them.

    I am just curious as to what times everyone thinks is best for free range birds and why? I feed around 4pm in the summer and around 2pm in winter. I just assumed it would encourage better foraging resulting in less feed needed.
