I have 5 hens that we got as chicks in April (layers & pets). 4 of them are laying. I switched from 18% chick feed to 17% layer crumbles as soon as they started laying. I also provide oyster shells for them to eat as they please. My question is that my brahma isn't laying yet or showing signs of laying and it is my understanding that brahmas tend to lay later than my other breeds. Is it ok for her to eat 17% layer feed too or will that be harmful to her (too much calcium) since she isn't laying yet?
Thank you in advance for any insight!
