Question: What feed would you feed to show chickens (bantam and standard Cochins)?
Answer: Leslie,
You have a couple of options to feed your exhibition poultry.
Young pullets (1 day of age up to 16 weeks) can be fed the following:
> Sunfresh Recipe Start and Grow
> Honor Show Chow Broiler Complete
Mature Birds (17 weeks and beyond) can be fed the following:
> If producing hatching eggs to replicate the flock or eggs for your breakfast table- Sun Fresh Recipe Layena
> If producing males only- Sunfresh recipe Start and Grow is okay to feed
BUT Do not feed to females beyond 16 weeks of age.
I hope this helps!
