I picked up some treats for the chickens with worms and oats and various things. I also scatter cracked corn and I have layer pellets but they don't seem too interested in those after a summer of chasing grasshoppers on our deer fenced half acre.
For those worried about a fancy chicken house or cold weather here is my camper shell on a plywood riser with roosts on the back wall. Lots of straw on the floor and some store bought nests on the wall. The 13 girls are laying 8 or 9 a day even without some extra lighting here in rocky mountain montana where the temp hasn't been above freezing much lately.
