Ono Of the difficulties in feeding fowls
Is that, as given by the poulterer, the
food is In = mass and can be gobbled
down far too quickly. In its natural
state, the fowl hunting for food Ia
obliged to eat slowly, one grain at q
time. Usually. after each mouthful,
the hen Is Obliged to scratch for more.
30 ingrained is this instinct that q hen
with chickens will scratch and cluck
when she comes to a pile of grain.
One of the reasons why corn ia q bad
food for fowls is that the grain is large,
and If shelled and thrown out by hand
fuls the fowls eat it much too fast for
their own good. The true way to feed
hens is to mix their grain with chaff
or straw, 80 that they must scratch for
1t. If covered with mellow earth, it
will be still better, as the dust thus
raised will rid the fowls of vermin.-
