Hello all. I have four 12 week old EEs and 2 laying BRs close to 18 months. I have a few feeding stations set up, with the young hens feed in an area where they mostly go (higher up) and regular layer feed in the others. However, they all definitely eat each other's feed.
I read that layers can eat the higher protein feed if oyster shell is available, which it is. But, young hens shouldn't eat lower protein feed. Is that accurate? Should I just fill all the feeders with the grower (20%~) feed? Are the 18% 'all flock' feeds do able?
Thanks in advance.
