HennyPenny59 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Does anyone make their own chicken feed? Im just about to do so Yesterday I introduced my girls to a small amount of Chia Seeds (one teaspoon to be exact) which they went mad on, and today they have had a few Flax Seeds which they also loved ... Im at present mixing this in with their layers pellets. Im waiting for the rest of the ingredients to come through the post, and then I will start introducing those too, until I can eventually wean them off the pellets and just give the home made stuff. It gives me a really good feeling that I will be knowing exactly what my hens are eating ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvachicken Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 One of those recipes was on something like 'The Victorian Farm' series. That lovely hunky farmy presenter mixed it all up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
