I like the idea of buying cheaply in bulk, but unfortunately our shed isn't completely waterproof and it would probably rot. But it's an idea...

Quote: Oh, sorry! I didn't know that was what you meant. That isn't about to happen for at least 20 years xD But now I'm THE chicken keeper. But yes, in 20 years time my dog and donkey will keep the foxes away and the chickens can eat the cow food. I actually didn't think of that Quote...

Quote: Unfortunately, although I'd love some, no dogs or livestock xD But what's the dunghill mode? Quote: Thanks! They go very well on it, my three layers haven't stopped and it's the middle of winter!

We've just moved house so our six chickens currently spend most of the time in our nearly finished 5x5 run. They are used to being completely free range but there are lots of foxes here. They have an hour of free ranging a day, and that will be more when the garden is fenced. Not much grass left...

Unfortunately I did a search and there aren't any feed mills within 30 miles of here... I think the 'countrywide' feed is about £7 for a sack (20kg I think) but it's not good quality or organic. The one they have at the moment is much better but more expensive. Does anyone know the ingredients...

Thank you! I'm not sure we have feed mills in England, but I'll look it up. I feed them organic pellets. They have oyster shell in their grit, so that's not a problem.

I was just wondering if anyone makes their own chicken food, and if it's cheaper that way? If not, which feed do you find is the best and cheapest for layers? Thanks!
