Egg food - Soft food - Nestling food - Egg & Biscuit

It takes 25% of the hens body mass to produce one egg! Hard-boiled eggs with the shell gives her proteins and calcium, which is much needed.

Rotten egg food kills! It should not be kept in room temperature for longer than an hour. Dry commercial egg food can be served in the evening and kept over-night, for the next morning's breakfast.
