Owning and raising chickens, hens or roosters can be a lot of fun, but it will also require some basic supplies. 

FAQs About Chicken Food, Treats, Coops and Supplies

Providing your chicken with their vital food, water and environmental needs are all important aspects of maintaining a healthy and producing flock. And just like any animal, chickens have their own nutritional needs.

They need protein for their health and to lay eggs. For their daily diet, chickens need greens and grains to be the primary source of their vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. Look for a chicken food containing high-quality sources of proteins and wholesome grains. Giving your chickens a nutrient-rich diet can help hens produce plenty of strong-shelled eggs with rich, yellow yolks.

High-quality complete layer chicken feed will generally come in the form of a mash, crumble or pellets. You can feed it to your chickens through a feeder tray or by scattering it in the yard. In addition to daily food, you can find treats and supplements for your poultry pals to enjoy. And don’t forget, all chickens need water, and a chicken water feeder is a must for every coop. You’ll want to ensure it’s covered, regularly cleaned, refreshed and accessible to your chickens year-round.

An important part of the health of your hens is providing them with the proper chicken habitat—a chicken coop. Your coop will be like a birdhouse but serve multiple functions for your hens. It provides a comfortable place for them to sleep at night and a safe resting space throughout the daytime. The coop is important to keep your chickens warm in the colder months and provide them with a place to nest and lay eggs. 

Your coop will need chicken nesting boxes. These provide hens with a quiet, secluded place to lay their eggs. They may be quite picky about what they are willing to accept as a nesting box, so you may have to experiment with different options and placements. Most hens prefer darker, drier parts of their environment with clean bedding for nesting.

Other important chicken coop accessories include a roosting bar for them to sleep on and other elements like an outdoor run adjacent to the coop.
