    Best feed for Sebastopol's for winter

    I feed mine a mixture of greens, grains and some cracked corn. As they havent ate much at all this summer with having 10 acres of pasture to share with the horses. So I was wondering what everyone finds as a good mix to keep them in excellent condition in the cold winters.

    Until you hear them crow, dont assume they are roosters. I have LF here , Cochins that I swore at about 10 wks they were roosters, they are not and I so glad I didnt sell/place them. Some hens have larger waddles then others. Please wait until you know for sure. Quote:

I then lay a cinder block cross ways in the front for them to step up onto and...
