Answer 5

???????? Are you serrious with this question?

First, what part of the globe are you located on (legitimate question)?

The Northern hemisphere is just headed into Spring & Summer.  Your chickens should have plenty of time to gain weight.

If you live in Australia, you are headed into your Fall, then Winter.  Not much time.

Feed them black oil sunflower seed, along with whatever ration they have been recieving.  If your chickens are too thin, you may not be feeding them ENOUGH food....up their ration.  Are they being plagued by some parasite?  Worm them, or dust them for lice.

Do they have room to roam about and find any of their own food?  The happier your chickens are, the healthier they will be.  Happy chickens are roaming about on grass, and under bushes scratching up some of their own food.

Black oil sunflower seeds, some cracked corn, some oyster grit....your chickens should do well, especially if they have any access to grass and such.  If they do not, at the least, dump your lawn clippings to them, if you use no chemicals on your lawn.
