I just had a question come to mind.
My family is from Ukraine, but I was born here in the U.S. My grandmother had chickens in UA, and ONLY fed them table scraps. They did not have chicken feed available, so she only fed them table scraps and human food.
My question is: If the hens had such a bad diet, compared to how people feed their hens nowadays, how come they were still laying at impressive rates? And how did chicks survive just off wheat? (My grandmother once told me that she only fed the baby chicks tiny wheat pieces)
It was just interesting to me that they could survive off a not-so-good diet.
