Can I feed dog food to chickens?

I have egg laying hens and I am running out of layer feed. Living in
suburbia, I do not have easy access to the cheap chicken feed for
layers. Iowa is too far to drive for it. I am considering feeding dog
food to chicken. Dog food is apparently made of various cereals and
rendered animal products (carcasses of dead animals, hair, ligaments,
cow stomachs with contents, etc). It made me think that dog food,
being cheap, can be a good feed for my chicken. Layer chicken
obviously need a lot of protein becase they lay protein laden
eggs. Any thoughts? Is dog food made with too much sodium?

My friend Alice gives her chickens popcorn and they lay the prettiest eggs
for her.

You have chickens in suburbia? Your neighbors must love you.

Chickens are nothing! Just clucking around all day long.

How about the guy in NY who had the pet tiger and alligator!

Not the best way to raise a feline. However, if you're going to have a
cat, that's the kind to have.

Cheers!
