Crossing the Road
You are right in this suggestion! I just realized that not all chicken keepers would give their birds a pan of wet food for this 15 min feeding time! It does make a difference. I wet the food when I give them a pan of food -- what I do is give 2 pans, far apart, so the bullys can't hog all the food! So sorry -- sometimes it is not easy to know what other folks might know!If you want to let them eat for a certain number of minutes (which I saw suggested), you may want to serve the food wet.
When chickens are really hungry, I've seen them sort-of choke if they are gobbling dry feed, but they don't as much if I serve the feed wet. And of course Cornish Cross are going to act really hungry at every feeding, if you are restricting their feed.
