Hi Brenda and welcome to the group. My brother and his son won a scholarship to collage with his chickens by feeding dog food. But when I got my chicks he advised against it because they got so big so quick the could break there legs by walking.
As for your question about the bees I don't know but its an idea. Ron, Arkansas

Hi...new at chickens, haven't even gotten my chickens yet!! ...so I am benefitting mucho, mucho from this site.
From what I've read thus far, chickens in the veggie garden might not be such a great idea and I want to use a weed/seed killer in the veggie garden to avoid those pesky weeds.
My question is, is it a good idea to feed the chickens dog food...the higher end...to get the protein they miss from scratching in the garden.
I also wonder what kind of nutrition does a chicken get by being "trucked" around the grassy yard? Do they scratch/find bugs in grass?
Thanks for your patience...!
