Oh, in that case they have feed available at all times during waking hours! I purchased the calcium citrate tablets with D3 and should be here tomorrowGood to know you're fermenting.
Main difference in most cases between grower and layer feed is calcium % (and I think with S&P the grower might be a little less processed as far as the grains being broken down... I've never tried the layer to compare). So yes you can feed grower (or even starter) to laying hens for better protein levels.
Free feeding simply means the birds have food available during all waking hours.
