    I buy Super Mixed corn from the smallholder range from Allen and Page.
    It has Corn peas, oyster grit etc.
    The Hens love it!

    Briany82, where are you located? Most feed stores will have corn. +1 for the Smallholder range (CJHaughy, where do you buy yours, I cant get the super corn I think), there is also the Fancy Feeds range - they do a mixed corn for poultry (GM free) - it costs about E12/25kg. You should only give corn in the evenings (small handful each) before bed - corn is a 'warmer' and stays in their crops for longer, so is very useful in the winter. But again, you should let them eat their Layers Pellets during the day before giving corn/grain which they much prefer, as its not as balanced a feed as the Layers Pellets. Apologies if Im telling you something you already know :o
