Sue that sounds good to me ........ you are to be commended for having happy 10-12 year old hens !!
I think they answered your questions ......�
we ask them if they want to keep their pets on same food they eat at home ........ if so , bring it with them or they eat ours which is 80-90% of the time better than what they bring .�
Our show dogs eat Purina Pro Plan Select(salmon)(they also at times get beef , pork, eggs,chicken and etc) , for the kennel and ones not showing we use Sportsman Pride Premium and SportMix .
Give them old hens a thumbs up from me ,

I don't buy cheap cat food unless that's what my clients want me to feed their cats whilst they're boarding. I always try to encourage them to put them onto a better diet. My own cats would leave most of the cheap foods, making them a more expensive option than the expensive ones they do eat. My primary concern with the hens and the cat food (wet only), which they love, is whether or not it would put a strain on their kidneys. However, my current oldest hen is 10, and the next one down is 7, so I don't think I am necessarily doing anything wrong. Otherwise I feed layer's, or grower's pellets, depending on age, plus fruit, veg and some mixed corn as a treat. They are free ranging on grass in part of my garden throughout the day, so they get that as well plus clover, weeds etc.
I am sorry if I emailed all this once already, I started to comment on the cat food yesterday and then outlook crashed so I assumed the email didn't get sent.
