I keep about 30 laying hens usually. Right now there are more. Also have turkeys, ducks, a few geese and some guineas which aren't really mine anymore having gone wild. The chickens are supplemented with scratch, lay crumble and I put out goat's milk as a calcium supplement. They drink it like crazy. They are let out each morning to forage in my pastures, returning to the coop to lay and roost at night. I figure they're getting at least half their nutrition from forage.
