Beca Chick Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 When I give my chickens food they normaly leave some still in the 'grub' bowl.

quickcluck Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Dont worry becca... If they are not laying they will not eat much and often leave food in the grub. I take all of my food in over night for the same reasons..... but you can put it out again so as not to waste it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjp Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 if there's some left it also means that you are not under feeding them if you're out all day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
