If chickens don't free-range should they be given greens or is everything they need in their layers pellets?

Mine ( bantams) get greens intermittently I.e. when I remember.  But it’s mainly to amuse them.  Layers pellets should have everything. 

That's what I thought but I will try and remember to start giving them their brocoli again as they do love it! 😀

Layers pellets are formulated to be a complete balanced diet so they will be fine without.

That said, any dark green you give them will make your yolks a darker orange colour :) 

Ditto

Be sure to keep the greens to small amounts and at the end of the day. Stringing them up slightly out of reach gives them some fun jumping up to get to them.
