Supplementing with wheat germ oil?

[hennybee]

Is wheat germ oil good for chickens? If so, what is a good brand to use? Also, my chickens never finish their food, and I read that wheat germ oil will go rancid when not refrigerated, so would I have to throw away left over food after a couple days if I coated it with the oil? Not sure I’d want to do that.

Why would you give extra oil?
I don’t think any oil it’s beneficial as supplement.
