Right now I am feeding layer pellets to my girls, but they waste so much. Everyday there is alot of the feed on the ground by the feeder. How can I stop this or atleast not waste so much? Will switching to crumbles be better?
Also, is my roo getting enough to eat from the little bit of scratch that I throw for treats? or from the laying pellets? I have a small feeder that I have tried to put just scratch in to make sure he is getting some food, but everytime I put it out the hens eat it before my roo gets some. He is growing like a weed so I know he is getting food, but should I just offer pellets or crumble for the whole flock?
Thanks for the replies.
