AmberSky Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 normally i use a 20kg bag of layers pellets every 4-5 weeks, now after 3 weeks i am ready for another bag allready. The brand i got for the first time was farmgate which only cost £5.50. now egg production is up by almost double compared to 3 weeks ago so is this why they are eating more or are they eating more because it fails to fill them up? Should i get a more expensive brand in the hope it fills them up more or do they like this one so much they are eating more of it??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 They'll be laying more eggs because its daylight longer now,but a good diet does help too.If they're doing well on it-keep them on that brand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I would stick to the one they like also. Hens will eat loads more now Spring is in the air and egg production is up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
