What is your favorite type of feed for layers

[meangreenie]

I am new to chickens. I have 9 golden comets that I got when they were a week old. My babies are not babies anymore!!! I am just curious what everyone's favorite layer feed is. At the end of next month I am guessing that my girls may start laying, so they will need to be switched soon. Any recommendations?

I recommend Nature Wise* layer feed. I've never had any issues with it, it has all the right nutrients, the hens love it and is just the best in my opinion!!

Here's two links on it.

I just feed Flock Raiser to everyone, then offer oyster and crushed chicken egg shells in a separate container.
The higher protein balances out the scratch and treats I like to give them.

TY I actually use nature wise grower crumbles now and my girls love it.
