  1. think if you put a pot of beans or peas in the box when yb hatch it does not matter what your feeding use to be you wanted at least 18 to 20 percent protein for breeding in a mix but if you give them the protein high feed beans or peas in the box it should not matter what your mix is my best tip for rearing healthy yb is plenty kilpatricks black minrals tried others but thay crave for the kilpatrick stuff if its the salt there after as some say they have the balance just right imo
  2. plenty time for the hen to lay yet joe ive had hens not lay for weeks after the rest have went down if she is barren its a loss in the breeding but you gain with them racing as you can set them up perfect and there keen as mustered you can kid them with dummies live eggs and a younster to which they race great but as i say she could lay yet some hens are just slower than others to lay m8 great feeders
