Feeding

How do I know if I am giving enough food to my chickens
My hens and chicks have feed in the feeders and water available 24/7.

My coops are rodent proof when I close pop door after sunset.
Otherwise feed and water should be available during daylight and when artificial lights are on.

But if you are raising meat birds like Cornish X, that's a different feed schedule.
I don't raise meat birds so don't know the details. GC
 
You don't need to worry about them overeating when you a providing free choice chicken feed. Overeating becomes a problem when they are fed lots of treats. Treats should be rare. Just because your kids like candy, doesn't mean they should have it all the time.
