Hi Everyone I'm very new to the chicken thing. Starting from the very basics, what do you feed/offer to keep your chickens healthy and happy? Locally I only have a TSC and a Do it Best that offers feed (Poulin). There is a blue seal dealer about 15 miles away but the tractor supply is closer. For years I was a horse person but I am taking a break to get some other things done in my life. So while I do not have horses any longer, the chickens will be staying at a relatives farm (she lives very close by) and I have it set up so they can be turned out with their two horses. I just want to know, what else should I give them daily/weekly/monthly? I'm talking everything I need to know as far as good basic care of these animals. Eventually I would like to show, if/when I can get some really good quality birds, and I want them to look like a well loved chicken. Also, does anyone know where I can find a good resource to learn the correct conformation breed or not breed specific?
