I have two groups of bantams, each with a rooster and three hens. They are 116 wks old. My questioon is, do I feed layer feed or will the calcium in it hurt the roosters?
My broody is due to hatch on June 15th. Right now she is with the rest of the flock, but I am going to isolate her with her eggs. Once they hatch, do I feed just starter feed alone or do I continue to put out Layena in addition to starter?
I am not able to free range but would like to raise meat birds. I know for layers, 8+10 sq ft per bird is recommended. What is a recommended size for a meatie pen?
I got my first egg from my red star. She is one day shy of 17 weeks. Whe laid it in the shavings in the coop rather in the nest box. Ihope she learns what the nest is for.
