I've been reading about potential benefits of feeding chickens crushed red pepper flakes (anti-bacterial/worm properties of capsaicin, and yolk color). Does anyone do this? If so, how do you do it? We have a 10lb feeder in the run for 8 hens and I'm wondering if I should just dump a bottle of the red flakes in with a full bucket of feed or distribute it in some other way. Half a bottle for a bucket of feed? Just spread the flakes out on the ground with treats? What do y'all do?
