14 runners age 7 weeks. My question is how much food should they get a day? Cups/pounds/ Oz? They do free range. The area is fenced off. It's over 2,000 square feet. They get a snack every day. Well I try to give it to them.

I was thinking about putting olive oil on there food when I put the brewers yeast on it. So the yeast will hold on to the food. Is this a good idea or bad ?

You could ferment their feed then add the brewers yeast. That's what I do. I have a link about FF if you'd like to have it.

I'll just give you the link and then you can decide not sure about adding oils to their feed probably in small amounts it would be okay

Help....
I have 14 runners 7 weeks old. One is not like the others. Stays by it self more then with the group. Doesn't stand for long periods of time. Not like the others. When walking he\she stumbles. Looks week when walking. Flight feathers, the straws show 24\7. All the others you can't see unless they stretch. What could be wrong?
