That sounds like a nice feed. I do wish it was closer to me though. I may call them and ask about shipping but it will probably cost a lot. I do know somebody that goes to Eugene a couple times a year so maybe I will be able to work something out. Thanks for the information.
I guess I don't really see how a feed with whole grains and pelletized extras is going to be much more effective than the regular feed. They are still going to pick out what they want and ignore the rest unless you only allow them a certain amount each day. Maybe it makes sense for really large flocks. I still prefer fermenting the S&P.

I was buying the New Country Organic... a forum member mentioned it was cracked grains. I looked closer.... wow believe they are right
Duh... no more for me . Paid like $50 with the shipping....
so will try something elseMY chickens waste so much not eating the fines or whatever small pellets inside.... even wetted
Those that say they use it are probably employees.
thanks yall
What is S&P?
I don't think there is anything different between a plain chicken feed and one that is whole grains and pelletized extras.
All feeds are going to have to provide basically the same ratios of amino acids, vitamins, minerals, fats and energy.
The amount of grains, legumes and for that matter, all other ingredients will basically be the same.
Pelleted feed minimizes the fines and fermenting or just wetting feed wastes even less.
IMO no matter what magical ingredients are in feed (and some are quite good I admit), unless one is independently wealthy, it doesn't make sense to pay for shipping to one's residence/farm.
