[QUOTE="badger nadgers, post: 7171635, member: 19244"] If they've go plenty of green stuff to pick through to eat and stop them getting bored, something grit-like for their crop, somewhere safe and dry. and a dust bath they'll be fine. As little extra feed as possible or you'll attract rats. A bag of layers pellets to bribe them and for going through moult. Layers pellets/mash seems to sell more to people who have restricted green stuff, very little space or need to keep them inside away from wet and foxes. Some people reckon mixed corn keeps them full longer in winter than layers pellets/mash but that the latter is a more complete meal. if they're pottering around a farm that's less likely to matter.
