Chicken Feed Ratio/ Mix?

[KBG204]

What is the best feed ratio for chickens? I want my chickens to be in the best of shape and healthy...any suggestion?

Ratio of what? Commercial feed to scratch? To greens? Different grains? Or did you mean how much per chicken?

Different grain mixes they sometimes get grass, but mainly corn and oats. What else could I add to boost my feed?

A lot depends on the feed that your feeding, if your feeding a 16% protein feed like Layena SunFresh or Layena Plus I wouldn't offer any treats at all.
Now if your feeding a better feed that is say 18% or 20% protein you can go with a 9:1 Ratio (9 lbs feed to 1 lb treats).
