What’s for Breakfast in the Coop?

While bagged commercial feed may suffice, there are numerous ways to enhance the overall health of your chickens.
I make it a priority to provide my hens with ample greens, including homegrown sprouts, eggs, berries, romaine, tomatoes, and whatever other goodies I can offer them daily.
Greens provide essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that may not be present in their regular feed. For instance, greens like kale, spinach, and lettuce are rich in vitamins A, K, and C, which are crucial for overall health, immune function, and egg production in chickens. Greens contain dietary fiber, which aids in digestion and helps contribute to the overall gut health of chickens.

Greetings From the Coop

While spending a couple of hours tending to my ladies, I took the opportunity to capture a few photos of the hens who were at least somewhat willing to be photographed. The hens in the coop range in age from 1-4 years old. Waiting for one of the Silkies to go broody so I can put a couple baby chicks under her, hopefully by March.

Silkies, Mille Fleur, Black Stars
Raven, the 4 y/o Silkie who raises my baby chicks.
This looks like a good place to lay an egg….
