15.00 for 100 pounds of Layer here in Michigan. I buy from a local farmer in Lapeer "Howard Stack" my chickens were eating that high dollar feed from TSC and then I switched to the local stuff to save a few dollars. My chickens are laying better than ever now.

A friend gave me some grower, can I give this to my laying hens? Should I mix it with there layer? I understand it has more protien than layer but what about the extra stuff they need for laying a good quality egg?

You guys are great, I wish I would have ordered more now two just arent enough. I have a good little mix of chicks to go with my full grown girls but I would love more NN's. I should have gotten a cockeral and tryed hatching some.
