Recently I've been told by my parents,I'm allowed a pet chicken after August.I'm going to build them a custom coop so they have a larger area to roam around,and safe at night..
I'm going to get a rooster and a hen,and I didnt know how much to feed them.
The biggest bag of feed,my local pet store sells is layer pellets in 20kg bags and mixed corn in 20kg bags. How many times would this feed them and how much do I feed them a day.I'll feed them daily but the amount I'm unsure about.
The chickens will also have hay,grass and they'll have access to a feeder,but I'll half the food they're meant to have,and put the half into a feeder for them to share.
Also,Would a fox be able to attack my chickens in their coop. At night,I'll put the chickens in bed-boxes so no foxes can get them,but they'll be really big and They'll have to share a bed-box.
