I have my own chickens. To lay eggs at that rate, which they do, requires a lot of eating. Mine roam free in a forest and devour worms and bugs and vegetation at a ferocious rate. Their store-bought food is also heavily fortified with calcium and I dry and crush the shells of eggs I’ve used and toss them on the ground for the chickens to eat. Corn, although they do like it, is not a good food. Even cracked or softened, it doesn’t have the nutrients they need.
Egg label fact- the best label to see at your store is pasture raised. Free range chickens still don’t have much space. Pasture raised is the most humane.
