Hey everyone!
So I figured I would post my own personal chicken feed recipe to see how others may modify it. Just looking to start a thread on nutrition for birds. My birds are free range so my recipe does not call for a lot since they can pretty much manage on their own. The recipe is:
1 50# bag of layer crumble or pellet (https://amzn.to/2XLLM9c)
4 coffee cans of cracked corn (https://amzn.to/2C0y8pi)
1 coffee can of crushed oyster shell (https://amzn.to/2tPJTdO)
I mix this all by hand in a seal-able tote type container. I also use 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar (with mother) per 3 gals of water for their water tower. My birds get lots of roughage from their foraging through the yard. Any tweaks and advice are greatly appreciated!
