In the Brooder
Hello there, I was interested in an animal nutrition consultation, but sadly, no self respecting animal nutrition consultant will take a guy with several dozen ducks on his property seriously. I run a medium sized poultry farm in East Tennessee and I feel less than amazing about feeding them bottom shelf feed that is made of god knows what. I have some consumers in my area that are interested in buying very high end animal products made from my birds that are all natural and organic as well as soy, gluten, gmo and chemical/hormone free among other things (corn free? No grain?). I have looked just about everywhere for a commercial feed that would suit my needs, but I have come up empty handed in my search sadly. The only farm I can find that offers products that are fed within these standards is a farm in Florida called Circle C Farm, so it gives me hope that I am not on a wild goose chase for this secret recipe. I have determined that if I wish to achieve what my consumers want, I will need to make the feed homemade and in bulk. Luckily my family owns a bakery in town, and there is a unused restaurant sized flour mill available to me, but I need help along the way in terms of mix amounts and ingredients. Looking forward to hearing from you all.
