Did you notice that there is barley in Scratch & Peck and not in the NCO? I was wondering if you noticed any changes with the NCO? Do you supplement with some type of calcium product or would they get enough in the NCO? And is there anything else I would need to supplement with this feed...
Ok, I would love to do the ferment. So I tried researching recipes for homemade feed but it seems so much more expensive than buying NCO. I looked up a place called Azure Standard and making 50lbs would cost over $100. I can't seem to find a local place to purchase large quantities of grains...
I am thinking of buying this feed. I have read that barley isn't that great for chickens and the New Country brand doesn't have any whereas the Scratch & Peck does. What do you mean by "I ferment?" Does that mean you are familiar with the ingredients because you ferment? I'm new to chickens...
