how much should i feed my?

Answer 1

A chick will actually eat about 1 ounce of feed per day, this is very general as pecking and scratching will lose part of the food offered and rodents will grab a share. In general, limit the amount of feed available to avoid unnecessary waste. Food lost in ground debris will be searched for later in the day.

While breed and size determines daily intake. A full grown chicken, hen or rooster will generally require 3 to 5 ounces of feed per day. Free range hens will supplement this with fresh greens and insects.
