I'm on 8 acres of certified organic farm, and I'm already growing produce for local restaurants. With the space I have (and the number of incoming hens in the Spring), I'm going to dedicate a few hundred square feet to growing my own feed. Sunflowers and Milo are the two I'm most likely to go with, as they're easy to "cut and chuck" into the run. But I'm curious what others could/would grow if they had the opportunity.
Or, if you are already farming your own feed, I'd love to know your priorities.
NOTE: The grains I'm growing are supplemental. The hens still will have access to layer crumbles, grit, and free-choice scratch/shells/etc.
