Hi all
I have currently 4 birds which are 3 hybrid browns and 1 light sussex. I am currently feeding them layers pellets and a bit of wheat in the afternoon every other day as a treat. Can I mix some layers mash in there as well for them to pick over
Many thanks

Alex

Hi! you can give them layers mash, its got the same in it as the pellets only they sometimes waste more of it as it flicks around a bit more as they peck at it, you can mix it with warm water to a porridge too which some girls like (but mine dont!) atually mine arent keen on the pellets either fussy things!

Hiya
my girls have the layers pellets daily but they do have a bowl of mash with warm water and sometimes raisins for breakfast as a winter warmer. I also hang fresh greens up in an old string bag and they peck all day long at this

Hi, mash is the same as pellets, only ground up,

ours have always had mash as their main food (they won't eat pellets even though we've tried (it's a lot tidier with pellets)) 
I like to scatter mash on the floor for them to dig around in, so if you use pellets as their normal food and scattered mash, they'd love it
