Perfect! Thanks for being so helpful everyone! Is the only way I can feed them to be organic to feed them from my garden, or is there a company out there that makes a organic layer feed? I asked the "girl" ( she was younger and idk how much she knew about the topic) where I bought my feed from and she said there really isn't a commercial feed company that makes 100% organic chicken feed. Can anyone point me in the right direction? The whole purpose to my chickens are for a step tiward a healthier lifestyle for my wife and I. They free range in the yard all day with my hen house door open so they may go in and out for feed and water as they please.any suggestions? Thanks again everyone

I know there is organic chicken feed, but I don't know where to get it or what company produces it. I would search around on the Internet, or inquire with some other poultry people. Chickens shouldn't live solely on food from a garden, as they need balanced nutrients. They can, though, obtain some of their nutrients from foods like weeds, insects, other plants, etc., and of course, they enjoy doing so.
Good luck with your hens! I'm sorry I couldn't help more.
