So just reassure me that my genius chickens won't starve themselves right? They HATE the pellets I bought instead of crumble. They scratched ALL the bedding away from their feeder looking for more crumble and I don't think they have touched the pellets, although they've been out all day free ranging too.
They are very unimpressed with the pellets and while I appreciate their discerning taste I have repeatedly reminded them that they are, in fact, chickens so shut up and eat your food chickens!
They still aren't listening to me...They never do...
So they won't starve themselves right? They will start eating the pellets right? They aren't so stupid to just not eat....right?
Obviously somewhere chickens are eating pellets if they keep selling the darn things.
Oh, ETA I bought Blue Seal and the tag says only 15% protein, they are still on grower and I am thinking this is TOO low for them...I didn't notice until after I bought it but they are ranging a lot so getting a good bug supplementation at least until this bag is gone and I go back to the better stuff that they were out of when I went to get it.
