My chickens have free run of almost ten acres, lots of trees and tall grass (which means bugs and weeds/grasses), but they act like they're starving all of the time! I give them a couple of scoops of feed in the morning, they gobble it down, then a couple of hours later they're following me around and crying. What's going on here? Do I need to give them some tough love and let them find stuff to eat until the next morning? Or don't chickens find enough to eat via foraging?
