Hi all!
I thought you might find these videos helpful on how to tube feed chickens. For reference, I use the Pretty Bird Hand feed.
2.4 pound silkie got 20 ml/cc three to four times per day
5-6 pound hen got 30 - 40 ml/cc three times per day
Check crop first to see if there's anything in there. If it's full, skip feeding, if there's a little, feed less hand feed.
