PeckyBeak Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I have always fed my girls on mash in the day and some mixed corn before bedtime, I was told by a breeder that corn should not be given in the summer unless a frost is expected as corn is given in the winter to warm them up. If given in the summer, they may overheat. My girls are queuing at the door for their usual seed and I don't know what to do. Advices please.

Redwing Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 A little is fine, most 'mixed corn' is mainly wheat anyway I've been giving my lot a little wheat that has been soaked, its great for keeping them hydrated and is a bit of a treat too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 You can buy poultry wheat which doesn't contain any corn or maize and is therefore less "heating". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
