homemade feed and herb blend

[ChickensAreSweet]

Don't forget to supplement with grit or make sure they are free ranging where they can find sharp pebbles to ingest while eating whole grains/seeds.

I came across this site? Has anyone tried this recipie before? I may give it a shot. What are your thoughts. She also has a link to different dried/fresh herbs to add to the feed and what they are good for.

I saw this recipe on line when I was doing my research and it sounds like a great mix! I can't get a lot of these ingredients on this list, so I have to work with what I can find out here. But it looks like a nice recipe. You don't have to stick to these things absolute. As long as the birds are getting a good mix of plant proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, calcium, etc....than they will do well.

I also offer my birds table scraps of veggies, greens and meats so that I know they are getting everything they possibly can from the feed. My birds can't free range so I have to provide them with all they need.

Good luck and enjoy this new adventure!
