Just use dry cat food, it's cheaper and easier to feed them. I give about a cup of dry cat food every other day per 20 or so birds. Adjust accordingly.

Does anyone on here know of a breeder in Ft McCoy Fl , I found the loction on a survey that said there were Buckeyes being raised there and it's only 1½ hours from me .

Chris and I sold a flock to Mr Glen Beyer in Yulee Florida (Jacksonville). He should be able to supply. Pm me for his contact info.

There has been some discussion on this thread about animal protein in feed. Laura mentioned that Kent feeds has some animal protein in it. Today I called a feed store that sells Kent. He stated that on the tag a additive is FISH MEAL. So guess where I am going. It will be a bit of a drive but hopefully it will be worth it. Also it costs more 12.50 Its the standard 16 % protein. The chick feed is 20% with fish meal. They also have a feed 28%
