Feeding Millet Seed For Laying Hens

A quart of millet seed given to twenty hens in the morning and scattered widely to engage them until noon, then the same amount at night with other foods, keeps hens busy and fed. Twice daily feeding fills them, three times may kill them. Millet seeds are small and keep birds at work and eating slowly.

Experiments at the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station indicate a hen consumes about 82 pounds of grain and meal yearly and needs six pounds of oyster shell for shells. Food costs about a cent per pound, totaling roughly $1.00 annually, yielding about 150 eggs worth around $2, a 60% return on keep.
