I have been feeding this since last fall. I happen to ferment my feed so no waste there. On the first order I ran out and had to buy the junk from the feedstore (they were out of purina and only had krouse, which looks like it is nothing but corn and soy and of course not organic) My birds wouldn't hardly eat it, even tho they had had it before, they were looking at me like "what the h*ll is this cr*p?" While I haven't done a side by side test my birds reaction to the other feed tells me a lot. They really seem to do better and look better on the organic feed.Those of you who feed the phoenixorganic feed: I noticed it is only available as powder, and not pellets. Seems like this would only be ideal for young chicks & not adult birds. Don't you get a LOT of spillage & wastage with this particular organic feed? Is all organic feed like this, or are some companies making organic pellets as well? I am curious here
I will also say that I have been hatching a lot of eggs this month and they are 99% fertile with 90% hatches of big healthy chicks. My eggs have nice big bright yellow to orange yolks that stand up well in the pan. I love this feed.
I was talking to Scott Brown, the coordinator, at the last pick up and he says we are almost at a full truck load for the Tempe drop. But to get monthly delivery we would have to double the order we have now, since with a monthly drop people would only order half as much.
I feed the 17% layer with fish meal to all my adults and feed the 20%broiler grower as a chick starter and grower, even small day olds are able to handle the cracked grains in it since I ferment it and it's soft.
