What does everyone think of this recipe? If I did my math right protein is 17.44% They will also be getting free choice oyster shells. And free ranging on 5 acres.

I couldn't find anything for animal consumption. So E-mail. got number to call, they gave me food safety, they told me to call this other number for animal feed...final result is I got answer machine. Hopefully someone calls back.
I am in PA and I am getting 2 goats in few weeks. bnoth are dairy goats. One is currently in milk. I have to wait until she weans her kids until I can get them, actually. My questions is about milk sales. I know I have to licensed to sell raw milk (or any milk) for human comsuption. My question...
I posted an ad on there, actually. I found a few on there but not anywhere very close. did find one that in a 3 hr round trip so thinking of doing that. but would prefer to find one a tad closer.
Curious what makes them organic? organic feed? I know mine are truly free ranged. free range on 5 acres for at least 8 hrs a day. only timne locked in run is when we are gone which is like one weekend a month if that.
I changed my prices. I now charge $3/doz for chicken and $4/doz Duck
Mine are free ranged on 5 acres. they are free ranged most of the day. They are fed fermented grains and feed at night.
started a live stream for my brooder! It is a big brooder so can only see the eating/feeding area with part of the roosts. Keep an eye out for the cross beak (: She usually hangs out on top of the feeding area lol...she is the small one with dark feathering coming in (...
haha it's okay my phone autocorreced feeder to feeding. Thats is what we are using as well. with we have the part with all the holes off. I am hoping she is getting enough feed. So sorry for your loss!! I hatched out a cross beak with one eye in october that passed after a week of care.
got this girl lastnight. not sure of breed. But she is drinking on her own. She is a week old. havent seen her eat on her own but if is drinking she should be able to eat, right? I've been showing her food dish few times a day. She is also missing one eye. I was origionally going to free range...
I might be selling some this spring. Just depends. I have to get NPIP cert first. I will let you know as soon as I come NPIP. trying to figure out right people to contact.
