Homestead Chicken Feed

While our chickens spend a lot of time foraging as one flock is free range on are to do list is figure out the homestead chicken feed. It is nice to be able to go to the store and get some feed. We are importing nutrients for our homestead. The article about growing fodder for the homestead caught my eye. This looked like a good way to some homestead chicken feed.

This is an important step to obtain as the chickens provide eggs and meat to the homestead. They do a great job of that and even fertilizing and providing entertainment around the homestead. It would be great to be able to grow them something green even during the winter. That may help out with the egg production during those off months.

I would be interested in hearing from anyone else that has some thoughts or experience with homestead chicken feed. That is another project to take on but has a great importance to keeping the egg train producing.
