Lots of poultry keepers feed mixed poultry corn as a main staple diet for chickens but I really would suggest this should not be the case.

 

I recommend that one handful of this is fed to 6 birds per day, normally in the afternoon, so it keeps the crop full at night. In the colder weather it should be increased to 1.5 handfuls a day for 6 birds.

 

Birds do enjoy scratching for this so throw it for them rather than in a dish.
