Healthy, happy hens lay more eggs. Has it been proven scientifically? I don’t know, but from my experience, a healthy hen will produce more eggs than an unhealthy, miserable chicken. Chicken treats can make your hens happy and healthy.
My chickens are free to roam 24/7. We live on a couple hundred acres grain farm. They don't stray more than a hundred feet from their house. We don't hardly ever buy feed. Just a few winter months. I let my dog eat all the eggs he wants, and he keeps any living thing away or dead. I'm fortunate. This is the only prepper thing I do that doesn't take much work. Eggs are a good replenishable food. I urge every Patriot to do this. I have an incubator but it's easier to just let the hens do it. I think they really enjoy being mom.
My hens go nuts for bread soaked in milk.
ReplyDeleteMy birds' favorite treats are anything red - watermelon, tomato, red cabbage.
