My Rhode Island Reds were looking rough until I switched their feed
For about two months, their feathers were dull and they just seemed off, even though I was giving them a basic layer pellet from the farm store. My neighbor in Springfield said to try a brand called 'Feather Fixer' with extra protein, so I switched them over three weeks ago. The difference is crazy, their combs are bright red now and the feathers look shiny and full. Has anyone else seen a big change from just switching up the feed like that?

Sometimes a change in feed just lines up with a bird's natural recovery from something else. My flock went through a rough patch that cleared up on its own, right when I tried a new supplement. It's hard to know for sure what fixed it.

Man, I'm over here giving my girls the cheap stuff and wondering why they look like they just rolled out of a dusty barn. Maybe I should stop being such a cheapskate and actually try a decent feed for once.
