Good Morning, I am new to this forum as well as raising chickens. We have 20 Delawares and I want to give my girls all they need. I read where Kelp or Flax is good. Anything new on this? Thanks
Flax is a great source of omega 3 fatty acids. I get stabilized ground flax at my excellent feed store--it's in 25 or 50 lb bags. My horses get it as well so I always have plenty available--I put some in a smaller container to keep at the house for the Chix. They get it mixed into their "oatmeal" (layer pellets + rolled oats + ground flax + calcium powder + 1-2 eggs, shells included, nuked for 4 min. and allowed to cool). Not sure about kelp--perhaps others will have opinions there.
