Hatching
I'm new to raising chickens
I started my coop with 2 hens , 1 rooster and 12 chicks that I got from a neighbor.
I added 4 additional hens when the chicks were about a month old.
Everyone seems to be getting along fine, and all of them spend about 5 days a week out free ranging.
I have noticed that the hens however have been gobbling up the chick feed, and the chicks will eat from the large feeder that has laying pellets, scratch, etc. in it.
Is this a problem?
The chicks were hatched on March 7th
