Best Answer

A small amount of feed should be given to hold the bird overnight especially in cold months. Allow for access to fresh water overnight as well.

Should you give chickens vegetables fruits bread etc when you are already giving them chicken feed?

Yes. As a treat and not as the main source of nutrition. A healthy chicken can have kitchen scraps after being offered a balanced chicken feed first. Just like kids, a chicken will eat the "junk food" first when offered a choice so it is best to feed a good balanced nutritious chicken pellet or mash/chick starter or layer feed in the mornings and offer hen scratch or kitchen scraps midday or later in the day before roosting time.
