Egg farmers work with nutritionists to ensure their hens receive a well-balanced diet, which includes grains such as corn, wheat, barley, rye, or oats, as well as various sources of protein, vitamins, and minerals.
Hens always have access to fresh water.
If hens have outdoor access, they may eat almost anything they find on the ground, including worms, insects, plants, and grains.
