Yes ISADREW you are right at that price, I use it too..however after reading other posts id like to add that the feed is certified organic here in Canada but it has corn and soy in it. It would have to be organic..Now what interests me is why does this seem to be an issue with others in here...

He has plenty of room to add a second run (if necessary) on the back side of the coop where the Garlic sits now. Once the Garlic is harvested it will also aid as an free range area for the gals to dig around! I don't like to use paver stones as it prevents the gals from enjoying dirt baths and...

Quote: I thought the same thing, about the infestation.The only noticable sign i can see is a large spiders web in there. were still getting 3 to 4 eggs a day in the nest boxes. We let them somwhat free range meaning they dont have to go inside nightly. They all sleep outside on the roost...
