I was recently given 6 hens 2 roosters and 2 chicks from a well established chicken farm. They are used to being free range, and I have not had any trouble with them running off or not going back to their coop at night. I was told that they are proven egg layers. I have only had them for 3 days, and i've already had my hens lay three eggs. what is the best feed for my hens to get them to produce healthy eggs?

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan

Layer feed offers all the nutrients, including Calcium, that your hens will need to lay eggs.

Hi and

Sounds like a great lil flock!
You should give them layer feed, which is available from feed stores and even some supermarkets.

I hope you find all the info you need here.
