I have four lazy 3 year olds and 8, 16 week old chicks. With the sudden surge of
feed needs, I have started growing fodder for my
chickens. I use a mix of barley and winter wheat seed. I also throw in a few
flax seeds and some chia. The young ones tear it apart quickly. The older hens dont pay it any mind. I am trying to decide if it would be worth while to add in some herb seeds. I have read that many herbs have great health advantages for
chickens. For example I have read that oregano is great for the immune system. My question is, if these plants really do help, is it worth it to add a few seeds into the fodder seed? It won't cost much up front so I dont see harm in adding them anyway. I'm just curious whether i would be wasting my time.
