There are so many things I want to know/learn about now.
I'd like to get in touch with feed companies to find out exact amounts of vitamins.
Not very many companies list the amounts on their feed labels and that gets on my nerves.
I want exact amounts.:barnie
 

I hadn't noticed it before you posted about it, but it is really interesting. I wonder if it is because not specifying allows manufacturers to choose the cheapest/most available pre-mix at any given moment?

I did find this short article and wonder if some of the ideas mentioned in it are part of the issue as well:
https://www.wattagnet.com/blogs/13-...niversal-broiler-vitamin-trace-mineral-premix

I doubt that there would be a response but it would be interesting to send an email to the author of the article and ask why poultry feed manufacturers are so cagey on the subject.

Also - I want to join the chorus of people saying thank you for putting this information together.

If you want a lighter article to break up your research and data entry:

Excerpt:
"While chicken meat is widely seen as being good for the health, and cannabis is increasingly seen as having medicinal benefits, the latest instances of chicken and cannabis production are not thought to be evidence of a new trend in parallel cropping."
 
I think I've stumbled upon a realization. I'm feeding my 1.5. week old bantams Purina all flock. Do I need to put chick grit on the side?
