Obesity in Chickens


Listen Later

Hello! Today's episode starts with a quick update on my fierce little hen, Boo, and then goes on to discuss the issue of obesity in chickens. How can we identify an overweight chicken? What can we do to prevent obesity? And just how much food should our chickens be eating anyway? 

Visit my website for a rundown of everything discussed, as well as some educational photos.
