My chickens are permitted to free range from dawn to dusk 365 days per year, if they desire, and I feed table scraps & veggies from my garden. I also feed their dried shells back to them as grit & for calcium content & they clean up the whole oats my horses invariably seem to drop as they eat.
Knowing they have a varied diet, do you think I can supplement with scratch grains ONLY during the warm months when bugs & veggies are plentiful...or do I still need to supplement with actual commercial layer feed?
