I am making hemp meal feed for laying hens and want to find out more about what chickens need for feed requirements.

Hello and Welcome to BYC. Glad to have you here in this poultry loving community. And easy way to find out is to check the labels on a bag of reputable layer feed that is 18% or more protein.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Making chicken feed and having it balanced for all the macro and micronutrients is difficult and never less expensive than mass produced commercial feed.

It will not be easy to get all the different nutrients in a bag of home brewed as what you can buy from a producer who has access to every known needed ingredient.
