Looks and acts like a plant we have here and I was told it is poisonous. I don't know its name to look it up to see if that is true idunno.gif

Has anyone bought feed this week?! Holy Cow!  I was having serious sticker shock.  I even called around to multiple places just to make sure it wasn't only my normal feed store that suddenly raised their prices $2/bag. Yikes!!

We buy that brand from our hay supplier and the chickens do well on it. I buy the one with oyster shell in it. It's quite a bit cheaper then Layena.

Which feed store sells it Amy? How much cheaper than layena? After paying close to $18 for a bag of feed that usually cost me $15.50 I am on the hunt for some other options!!

My friend gets it from Jones Feed. She said it is significantly cheaper.
