Here are some Feeding Tips when Feeding our Homestead Layer Mix:
• Poultry should have access to clean, fresh water at all times. After moving or transporting birds, provide access to water before putting feed in the feeders.
• When birds have access to coarse litter or whole grains, an insoluble grit should be fed. Limit intake of grit to 1 pound per 100 pounds of feed or 2 pounds per 100 birds per week. Grit can be blended with their regular ration or offered free choice in a separate feeder.
• Do not allow feeders to run empty or stale feed to accumulate.
• Never feed any feedstuffs that are moldy, musty or suspect in any way.
• Supplemental feeding of oyster shells may be necessary after 45 weeks of age to provide additional dietary calcium to improve egg shell quality.
