Haven't made it to the store for chicken feed.... rescued Friday night.

Our take

Oh, cluck! It sounds like you've found yourself in quite the chicken conundrum! Rescuing a feathered friend from the side of the highway is no small feat, and now you're navigating the wild world of improvised feeding. With no wheels to whisk you away to the nearest feed store, you've turned to your culinary creativity, whipping up a makeshift meal of scrambled eggs (with shells!), broccoli, carrots, cucumber, and a sprinkle of oregano. While that sounds egg-cellent for a temporary fix, you might want to consider adding some grains or pellets if possible, as they provide essential nutrients. Let’s rally the community for more ideas to keep your new clucky companion happy and healthy until you can stock up on proper chicken feed!

So this is the chicken from the side of the highway Friday night. I haven't made it to the store for chicken feed or friends yet. I currently don't have a vehicle due to multiple unfortunate life events that happen simultaneously. So I have to rely on the bus. Nearest store with chicken feed is 30 miles away in another town and there were only 2 buses available yesterday which I missed and none today.

Had to substitute her chicken feed and never fed a chicken. I used scrambled egg with crushed shell, broccoli, carrots, cucumber, and oregano. Any better suggestions would be appreciated?
