Just wondering if anyone have tried mixing the chicken feed with water?
I have very picky chickens who LOVES to spread their feed around and a lot of it end up getting wasted. We've had a lot of rain lately and the feed bowl got drenched in water and I noticed that the chickens ate ALL the feed, no picking, no spreading. Because it was wet, they couldn't spread it all around- which means none wasted!
I've started pouring water in their feed bowls now. Just wanted to check if this affects their digestive system at all? Do chickens NEED to have dry chicken feed?
Cheers
