Chicken feed queastion

[Ashlyn Baack]

For a year now we have been feeding our chickens soy free, gmo free food. The food tends to be powdery with small chunks of seeds and corn etc.... This past week, I found some soy free gmo free food but in the pellet form. They appear to not want anything to do with it. Any thoughts on how to transition them to their new food? Could they starve to death? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Howdy neighbor!

I think your chickens will transition to their new feed in due time. -may take a few days to get used to it. The chickens shouldn't starve in the presence of food. They also supplement their diets with healthy forage from your lawn. They have access to grass/winter grass, seeds, and bugs. They should be fine!
