Wow. $7.60 per 50 lbs is great!

I'm currently paying $18 per 50 lbs. I kept a fairly nice trio of Black/Blue LF cochins and I still have a couple of old LF cochin hens that I keep around as pets.

After keeping track of how often I fill feed dishes, it seems that I can feed 3 to 4 bantam cochins for every 1 large fowl cochin. I love the LF's, but I also love the bantams and the bantams make more sense economically. They're cheaper to feed and easier to house.
I am paying 23.00 for a 100lb. bag amish made medicated crumbles, and Thank God I found the place and they deliver without fees!

Oz do you have supplier for eggs? I guess I need to look closer to hear, perhaps in the spring since I will not have any birds in my house for winter

I had a 40% hatch rate after shipping these to the phils - pretty good!

Just stopping by to say hi quick, I'll try and catch up when I'm more with it. I've been sick since Friday and I'm absolutely exhausted. I can't concentrate on anything long enough to make sense at the moment.

(Just to let you know how serious this is, I just turned down a bowl of ice cream lol. I honestly did.)
