Thanks!!~gd said:Keep an eye on your chickens. as long as there is bugs to eat they should be Ok but if they start to eat each other's feathers or eggs it means they need more protein. Corn is good for carbs and fats and sunflower seeds are good for oils, but your list is short on protein sources. feathers and eggs are good protein sources as well as other chickens. Again I think you will be ok but I want to warn you of practices of protein hungry chickens. Mice are good and some chickens make better mousers than cats. Also don't be surprized if they raid your cat or dog food since these are high protein also.
