    Forgot an unopened bag of chicken food in the trunk of my car for a week. Would the heat make the food go bad?

    I bought a bag of Cluck & Co layer feed for my chickens because it was on sale but they weren't quite at the right age yet so I was going to save it until they were, but I forgot the bag in the trunk of my car and it's been quite hot lately (70s/80s). The bag was not opened yet but now I'm...

    Is purina medicated feed okay for quails and chicks?

    Hi all! I was wondering if this feed would be okay for quails and chicks? I know it’s a stretch but just curious, I’ve heard some bad stuff about purina medicated feed and I want some advice from more experienced people rather than the internet.

    Food "Forest" Ideas?

    Today while I was collecting seeds from my Cauliflower seed pods I was thinking about the seed pods opening up on their own when I wasn't around, and that got me thinking even more.. What if I made a garden section where I left the plants, partially, to their own devices. I would still water...

    Need more food, should it be crumbles again?

    My chicks are 10 weeks old and I have about 5-6 days worth of their crumbles left. When it’s time I plan to feed all flock and oyster shells. Obviously they’re not laying yet. Should I buy all flock now or another bag of crumbles? Thanks!

    Raw fish.

    I saw a few things about being able to feed my girls raw fish, but nothing about deboning them. Does anyone know if that should be done or can I throw it in whole, head and all? Going to be giving them a trout if that makes any difference. Tyia
