Sharing my mistakes, so you need not repeat them. Aart, I believe, alerted me to it, roughly July/August two years ago, when shelves were empty and I was hoping to use it as alternative to flockraiser

additionally, Nutrena's "Feather Fixer" is a higher protein (18%) "Layer" Formulation. It already contains adequate calcium (3.5%+/-) for most production layers, and too much for everything not actively producing like a production layer.

and if that wasn't bad enough, its got way too much fiber, and what little protein it does have has the wrong amino acid profile. Chances are very high that its grossly lacking in the needed minerals and vitamins as well. Perhaps we should thank the first ever post on BYCer @BauerPower for...

If the only thing that comes of this is that a lot of Back Yard CHicken owners (mostly not on BYC.com) stop feeding their chickens the lowest cost, minimally nutritient "Lay Formulation" which they further stretch with corn, oats, and "scratch" and instead invest in a more nutritious feed as a...

It doesn't say quite as much as you are reading into it. DuMor uses a lot of old Purina formulations, and in many cases, arranges to have their feed made in plants owned by Purina Animal Nutrition (subsidiary of Land o Lakes), who may actually supply some of the ingredients in addition to...

Might I suggest "[Ctrl] K" or this VERY useful feature. I find it helpful when relying on authority not your own.

The above was the one and only time I have responded to you, in a claimed statement of Fact. "this and other threads"??? Suggests you've created "One Chick" as a second account to echo your own theories and perhaps create the impression they are more widely held. Good luck with that.

Welcome, @one chick , to BYC by the way. We are very fond of facts here. Reasonable conclusions. Plausible speculation. Please take a moment to consider whether the "fact" you are about to post is easily demonstrated to be completely false by a few second's search on the internet. The...

IT WAS PROVEN? Seriously, WHERE did you hear that??? Suggest you ignore all other "proven" claims from that source. Purina Mills (the maker of livestock feed) has been held by Land O Lakes company since about 2001. That hasn't changed. Cal-Maine, the nation's largest egg producer, is...
