Chicken feed brands

What do you all use for chicken feed? My flock is currently on Kalmbach non gmo layer pellet. I really like it and don't plan on switching, just curious.

Kalmbach Chickhouse Reserve and adding Henhouse Reserve Organic, b/c the latter is corn- and soy-free. Both are in whole grain form (“identifiable” ingredients ), so I serve them fermented. I also serve some dry in a feeder, and they do leave a lot of the teeny stuff (vitamins, minerals, pre- and pro-biotics), which I add back in to the ferment.

I use Kalmbach too! Non GMO All flock.

Thank you!! I feed them henhouse reserve as treats, since it's pretty expensive at our feed store.

I wish they had the same formulation for the Chickhouse! I don’t even care that much about the organic part; I just prefer peas and wheat etc over soy and corn.

Kalmbach Start Right for their main food and Kalmbach Chickhouse Reserve as a treat.

My flock used to eat Dumor but it was terrible. Filler ingredients, barely kept them alive, let alone healthy enough to lay!So glad I switched.

Kalmbach Non GMO Flock Maker 20% crumbles. I give to chicks and layers, but layers get Oyster shell option. And I agree that the grain form is a good treat only....

Payback duck feed with oyster shell on the side

Purina Flock Raiser. I've been using it for years and am very happy with it - my chickens are doing great on it.
