Yep, I agree Dave. I know lots of people here are more worried about what to treat their birds, than providing a complete, balanced diet for them. There are many issues with feed requirements, depending on breed, age, and sex. The big mistake I see a lot of people make is feeding layer pellets to all their birds, including immature ones, and roosters. This is not a good diet for your entire flock. You would be much better off to feed a standard pellet, and provide oyster shells for your laying hens, than to feed them entirely layer pellets. The extra calcium can be bad for the other birds. Anyone else?
