  • Roosters to support feather growth during the molting process.
  • Free-range adult hens and roosters during the molting process or year round.

Provide fresh water at all times.

The suggested feeding program is intended solely as a guide. The variables of management, environment and breed may dictate changes in the animal’s dietary requirements.
