Healthy Hen Herbs
Many garden herbs are safe for poultry, and can easily be added to their feed. Fennel and dill, for instance, can aid digestion while providing ample vitamin C, calcium, potassium and iron content. Fennel can even help reduce stress while encouraging egg production if given in moderation; acting as a natural laying stimulant.
Other herbs like rosemary and lavender can also be added to your coop or nesting boxes to deter pests, while increasing blood circulation. Lavender in particular can act as a stress reliever and boost egg production!
Basil contains antifungal properties and helps with respiratory conditions. Comfrey provides essential nutrition for chickens while mullein helps increase feather growth while also decreasing internal parasites. Marigold flowers contain high concentrations of phosphorus that contribute to beautiful golden yolks on eggs while nettle, dill and garlic provide vitamins and minerals.
Ex-Battery Hen Treats
Ex-battery hens may feel anxious in their new homes when first arriving from being held captive in cages; many lack confidence when venturing out to explore their coop and run areas – an entirely normal response for these birds.
Your chickens may have lost some feathers; this is quite normal and a balanced complete feed with grit and shell can help facilitate feather re-growth, encourage egg laying and support their health.
As chickens love eating dry cat food, which is high in protein (chickens require this for feather growth), you should add a small portion of cat food. Chickens love eating it too and this will aid their moult. An old poultry keeper trick that can aid this process is to include some longer nails due to keeping indoors for so long – don’t worry, this will all shorten naturally once their free range lifestyle takes effect!
