Feeding Chickens when only one hen laying

[Missyschix13]

As another suggestion, since we have roosters we also use all flock... But instead of oyster we bake our used egg shells, blend them down to tiny pieces (not powder) and the chickens eat them to get their calcium.

Thanks! That's a great idea!

I dont know why people feed layer there is nothing in it that makes them lay and there is not enough calcium in it to help either mine get high protien called gobblers grub it was 22% but not they dropped it to 21% also helps with molting

Thank you!

It's easy too. 200 degrees for a couple hours works.

I do, too.
