The circle invites the observer to step inside the sacredness the cross represents, like a capsule of honor. Consider some well known objects that are circles. The planets, the sun, the moon, clock faces, many kinds of seeds, wheels, coins, rings and eyes just to name a few.
Feed Per Day. On average, a laying hen will require approximately 1/4 to 1/3 of a pound of feed every day, or roughly 1.5 pounds of feed per week according to Nutrena Feeds. At this rate of consumption, every hen you have will require slightly less than 10 pounds of feed each month, regardless of whether or not she is actively producing any eggs.
Chicks need more protein, vitamins, and minerals than these feeds can provide. Feed a good commercial chick starter for the first 6-8 weeks. Then switch to a chicken grower feed from 9-20 weeks. At 20 weeks of age switch chickens to a laying feed, such as laying crumbles or mash.Separate roosters and hens at this time if the goal is a home laying flock.ewly hatched chicks need to be maintained at 95 degrees Fahrenheit (F) for the first week of their lives. After the first week, chicks can tolerate temperatures 5 degrees F cooler for each week until they are four weeks old.
