    What you can do is buy 50lbs bags of the grain that used the most in recipes and buy like 10-20lbs of the other stuff and get a barrel or whatever and a smaller bucket and make a batch then dump until the barrel is full.

    The Great Big Homemade Chicken Feed Recipe Sharing Thread

    I've been reading that and I think that would be more benifical and more cost effective then feeding just plain grain. For 8 chickens I can do just a couple of small/ med sized containers for them. Once our privacy fence is up I'm gonna let them run around the yard for a little bit in the...
