First time chicken owner, having a blast but wondering if I’m over feeding non feed.

Ha you guys say that but they went from eating 1/4 a can of moist cat food in the morning to barely eating much of it. The youngest among them eat the most of it (hybrids) and they eat far less protein than they did when they were feathering out.

I dunno what I’m going to do now.

All my babies seem happy and healthy :/

I just want what is best for them. They can live as kings as fair as I’m concerned. Absolutely the best pets I’ve ever owned.

Every time I hear the dirty word 'exercise' I wash my mouth out with chocolate.

Ok so I didn’t give them any tri grain or scratch yesterday but today I tossed a grip of tri grain out in the grass for them to scratch around for. I won’t be giving them anything else today besides feed.

I had another question about Welsummer chickens but I don’t want to OT.

Thanks everyone for the info.
