Just wanted all you helpful folks to know all is well. They're eating more feed now (musta got hungry, eh?), and I've even got one laying! Now if the rest would just catch the egg fever!!!

the brand of layer pellet has a lot to do with it. if they dont like it, they ain't gonna eat it. i tried switching brands over the years and you cant fool these chickens. they might eat it one day and stop the next or might even eat it for a week and then stop. i always come back to southern states excell layer breeder pellets.

Interesting. And people say chickens are dumb! Well...hopefully they'll always eat this because it's produced and packaged about 15 minutes from my house and costs half what it does elsewhere. I think my chickens appreciate my desire to support local businesses.
