Feeding eggs

[Opal8]

How often can I feed my chickens eggs? Is everyday too much?

Hi there.

It doesn't matter much what you feed as long as you keep it under 10% of the total daily ration... even for treats that are alleged to be good for them.

For informational purposes... eggs, according to their energy value (aka calories and not weight or volume) are 34% protein and 64% fat. Half of the protein is found IN the yolk. Also the protein in eggs is more digestible if cooked and not raw.

Yes, I do believe every day would be a bit too much.
