That would be amazing! We have a lot of neighborhood cats, but they're more interested in pooping in the flower beds than hunting mice. Something to look into for sure.

This is completely anecdotal, but my production red was GUZZLING oyster shell until I offered layer feed. May be a coincidence, or maybe the extra calcium in the feed helped even her out? Hard to say.

Those are awesome ideas, but we are having such a mouse problem right now that I don't dare. We literally have to keep a mouse trap in the engine compartment of our car, and we just started catching them IN my hardware-clothed, winter paneled chicken run. We do have a chest freezer, but of...

That could work when have six chickens, but we're down to 2. I'd be worried about it going bad before they could finish it. Also, I think they're running that promo right now if you're interested! EDIT: code GETJOLLY

So here's a great example of what I was talking about. Nutrena All-Flock: 2.5% fat, 6.0% fiber Kalmbach Flock Maker: 3.25% fat, 5.0% fiber Do these numbers matter? Is it a negligible difference? Curiosity is peaked since going from 16% protein to 18% protein could be the difference between...

I have not tried this one. My only gripe is no one sells it locally, so I'd have to Chewy it (Chewy's a verb, right?)

That was the original plan. I'm insistent that their main feed be crumble, since it provides more "bites" and therefore takes longer to eat while they're in confinement. They absolutely refuse the Purina Flock Raiser crumble. I've tried twice, and they told me they'd rather starve! 😩 They...
