midori Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I have some eggfood in the cupboard and I wondered if it is OK to feed to the hens? I thought it would make a lovely warm mash for them in this cold weather. Thankyou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stella14 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 What ingredients does it have in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie7 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Didn't know either, so I asked google - it knows. It says that eggfood is something you give wild birds and that it is very healthy. There is a recipe on how to make it yourself as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midori Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 Oops. It's a kind of supplemental food for rearing birds/for sick birds. I have it as I use it for my rats when they have babies or are old/ill. The ingredients are wheat flour, egg and egg shell, soy protein, hemp seed, nigerseed, perilla seed, oats, oils and fats plus vitamins and minerals. What do you think?

Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Glad I wasn't alone . There certainly doesn't seem anything in there that you shouldn't give them, especially in this weather . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midori Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 Thanks. I'll try a little and see how it goes then. I thought the oils and protein would be good in the weather, especially as some are moulting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
