I have 12 RIR and i buy 50 lbs of layer mash every 2 weeks, Ialso buy 50 lbs of scratch, and a bale of hay a month. my ladies get layer mash in the morning and scratch in the afternoon and a slice of hay once a week, any fruit or bread we have left over they also get but I'm very particular what else they eat.I bought 50 lbs of mash yesterday and almost went into shock, it has gone up to $10.50 since i bought them in April.
