Wow - I pay $16.99 for Layena. Anybody know of the best place to get feed on the west side of town (Glendale area)?
Do you have Pet Club over there? They have the best price I have found in middle Mesa.

I bought some Kruse starter, layer, and grower in Phoenix for 12 to 15 per 50# bag. Good stuff, long drive.
Has anyone tried Layena, or the newer Purina layer that has better ingredients? I'd like to find the Kruse, or similar quality, somewhere closer to Casa Grande.

Your not going to find anything in town that's quality. Powells only carries Arizona Feed. I don't even bother with Coolidge. I end up going to Phoenix every 7-10 days for feed. I'm getting Purina at the Mesa Feed barn.

NoSkiveez,
Powell's is definitely too high! Are you using Layena? Coolidge had OK prices, but DDGS (most likely from the Maricopa ETOH plant) is the main ingredient. They also put mineral oil in the starter :-(
How did you decide on Mesa Feed Barn? Have you any experience with other places in the east valley?
Sorry to hear about your chick. I've used big gravel in a water dish, and (so far) no problems. Did the same for the Muscovy ducklings, but now they are half the size of the laying hens, and swim or splash whenever they can
they are comedians.

I have a hard time viewing powells as anything more than a gift shop. Everything is priced really high. In coolidge the one on the main strip just changed hands and it seems like he isn't too concerned with stocking things. The one by the tracks, I haven't been in yet. I frequently head into mesa to a fruit & veggie market and often can pick up a shopping cart sized basket of fruit/veggies for $2-4 for the chickens. Plus too, I am familiar with the area. I have only tried AZ Feed, Egg Maker and Layena. The AZ brand and egg maker seem to be about the same quality.

Did they lay during the change over? All of mine abruptly stopped laying. The blue polish haven't startrdaying again yet. The americanas started laying again but slow producing and the SLW never really skipped a beat.
