Letâs say youâre at work and doing what so many of us do and eating your lunch at your desk. You decide to do a little bit of browsing or peruse your social media accounts. What you are doing is putting your company at risk of malware attack.
I also feed my chickens bran and grain, but more particularly malted grains, if you can get them they are excellent. However, use sparingly - 1 handful of malted grains for 3 chickens mixed with their other food is enough. Malt is one of the best chicken feeds you can get for keeping chickens healthy.
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.
