In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: When your hens are mature enough to start regularly producing (18 to 24 weeks depending on breed), you need to make sure that they have the right feed and nutrients to produce eggs suitable for human consumption. Otherwise, your hens' egg production will be poor and their eggs might break before they make it to the table. The proper diet will also ensure that your hens look and feel healthy. After about 20 weeks, you need to up the amount of calcium your laying hens consume. Laying hens need 2.5% to 3.5% calcium in their feed, which is higher than other chickens. The calcium will help provide the proper nutrients to support healthy eggs. Offer this calcium to your hens separately from their regular feed, so that they can consume it at their own pace. For good sources of calcium, consider:  Oyster shells. Calcium grit. Limestone. The hens’ own eggshells, but only after they have been cooked and thoroughly cleaned. If you choose to offer eggshells, grind them up into a fine powder so that the hens do not recognize what they are eating and decide to try eating their own eggs. Feeds with added calcium. Free-range chickens are able to supplement their diet with a variety of insects, berries, seeds, and grain. This will not only help them secure the nutrients for healthy egg production, but it will also improve the taste of your eggs. In addition, you’ll have happier hens, and you might even be able to sell their eggs for more money to a population that is increasingly concerned with the well-being of farm animals. You don’t want your laying hens to have too much protein in their diet. While meat hens need 20-24% protein in their diet, laying hens only need 16% or less protein.  As a result, be alert to the type of feed you buy, and what your hens are consuming. To boost protein, consider:  Letting your chickens free range for worms. Extra grower feed. Feed that is formulated for laying hens. Layer feed is feed that comes with the nutrients that laying hens need to produce healthy eggs. If you don’t want to spend a lot of time overseeing your hens’ diets, consider purchasing a pre-mixed layer feed. If you do formulate your own layer feed, make sure that it has the protein (16% or less), and calcium levels (2.5% to 3.5%) to ensure that your eggs will be strong enough to make it to the table.  Typical laying hens will consume a quarter of a pound (0.11 kg) of feed a day. Provide your hens with all of their food at one time, preferably in the morning. Always check feed levels to make sure your chickens have enough feed. Grit refers to tiny pieces of stone or gravel that stay in the hens’ gizzards and help to grind down their food. Without a little grit in their diet, your hens won’t be able to digest and use all of the nutrients they’re supposed to be getting in order to produce healthy eggs. Adding grit to your hens' diets is especially important if your hens are confined and you don’t allow them to roam. While table scraps can supplement the diet of your hens, you need to be careful about what you’re feeding them. Some foods will hurt the egg production of your hens, rather than help it. Consider:  Egg laying hens should not be fed more table scraps than they can consume in 20 minutes. Potatoes, pasta, beans, and even stale bread are all ok. Avoid avocado, chocolate, citrus fruits, and tomato stems. These are toxic to chickens. Avoid foods with strong tastes like garlic and onions, as the eggs might take on those tastes. Table scraps could also increase the fat intake of your hens, making them overweight and unhealthy. Mealworms are little worms that provide hens with lots of protein and other nutrients. As a result, you should consider mealworms only as a treat for your hens. While they might make your hens happy, feeding them too much could undermine your egg production by raising their protein levels too high.  Give your hens mealworms maybe once a week. Mealworms are probably unnecessary if your hens free-range, as they’ll be able to find their own worms and other insects. You can grow your own mealworms, if you don’t want to buy them.
Summary: Provide your hens with the right food and nutrition at the right time. Add calcium to the hens’ diet, at the right time. Allow your hens to roam free. Maintain appropriate amounts of protein. Find some good layer feed. Provide your hens with a bowlful of grit. Avoid feeding your hens large amounts of table scraps. Feed your hens mealworms, sometimes.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Races take a lot of money to enter, so to race, you'll need money. You may be able to find sponsors if you're good enough. You might also be able to enter with a team if they recognize your talent and pay your entrance fee. However, both of those options require that you already be established as a race car driver with talent. Nonetheless, local races cost a great deal less. For instance, you may get away with a couple hundred dollars per day at a local race. Even for local SCCA races, you need your own race car. You can rent one if you don't want to buy one right away, but rental prices are also high. Your local chapter, specifically your Competition Chairman, can tell you where you can rent a car. You'll have other costs, as well, including your racing suit and helmet, which can cost thousands for custom gear. However, you should be able to find suits for much cheaper. Your gear will need to be approved by the SCCA before entering a race. The entry packet will specify exactly what you need for the race, the time you need to appear, and any other classes you may need to attend beforehand. Just like in any race, you need someone who can maintain your car during the race. You can hire a local mechanic to come with you. Just ask at a local shop. You can also contact your SCCA to find a mechanic. When you enter high-end races, you'll need spare parts (enough to build two more cars), numerous sets of tires, as you'll burn through them, and a huge amount of fuel, as you can burn as much as 21 gallons per 60 miles. Just like any sport, you have to practice hard and often. Some drivers practice up to 7 days a week. Race car drivers train by putting hours in at the track, but they also use simulators to hone their skills. In addition, expect to do some physical training--running, weight-lifting, or swimming--to get yourself in top physical condition. Go through a lap in real-time in your head while you're waiting for the race to start. It helps calm you and prepares you for the drive.
Summary: Find money for the race. Buy or rent a race car. Buy racing gear. Read the entry packet. Bring a mechanic with you. Understand the additional costs. Be ready to train. Take some time to visualize.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can, of course, plant each bulb individually, but most gardeners plant trenches of between 3 and 8 bulbs at a time. Feel free to create trenches of whatever shape you want: straight and long trenches create an orderly garden, while more circular clumps produce a more “natural” look. Even though daffodils form roots in the autumn and develop foliage in winter in select regions, buds and flowers will not show up until spring. Trust that your daffodils are hard at work, and leave the area alone so they can grow well.
Summary:
Dig holes or trenches for the bulbs. Leave the area alone.
