We have 13 hens and 1 rooster. Our rooster is fat very fat. The hens are not they are beatuiful but not fat.
The rooster is 1 year old the hens are 6 months. So how do you know if your are giving enough.
We scatter feed on the ground for them and fill the feeders everyday. We also give them watermelon, noodles and rice cooked, cucumbers, tomatoes or what ever else we have. They get bugs from the ground and then two more times during the day we scatter feed. We have a total of 3 feeders we fill about 1/4 of the way so we can clean them out each day.
They go nuts we we scatter or put anything in their feeding area regardless and their feeders are always empty by night fall. Should we feed them more?
