I see what you are saying but also some breeds are better at foraging than others.
If you have feed/water in there coop and let them free range during the day they should be just fine.

Yes, this is what I do. They have access at any time they want to the pens with the water and food. I am primarily dealing with my o shamo in this regard. They are excellent at foraging. The silkies......not so much! Nor the polish.....LOL
Also if your Shamo are still growing they will benefit being on the on the ground free ranging and a lower protein feed.
