So I am trying to make my own mix of feed for my layers. They free range and my plans are the following:
500 lbs Corn
320 lbs Roasted Soybeans
120 lbs Crimped/Rolled Oats
4 Egg Innvations
5lbs Kelp
8 lbs Salt
10 lbs Poultry Pellets (Poultry Pellets are lime chips or calcium carbonate.)
(The Egg innovations is a vitamin premix consisting of
Vitamin A 2,000,000 IU/lb.
Vitamin D3 670,000 IU/lb.
Vitamin E 2,660 IU/lb.
Vitamin K 400IU/lb.
Choline Chloride, Managanese Sulfate, Zinc Sulfate, Iron Sulfate, Copper Sulfate, Sodium Selenite, Diatomoaceous EArth, Vitamin K Supplement, Niacin, Vitamin E Supplement, Organic Soy Oil, Pantothenic Acid, Vitamin A Acetate, Thiamine, Cholecalciferol, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Riboflavin, Biotin, Calcium Iodate, Pyridoxine, Folic Acid.)
My questions are the following:
Is the Sodium Selenite in the Egg Innovations all the salt I need or should I omit the extra salt?
For offering other options of food what should I add as side dishes?
Grit?
Sunflower Seed?
Wheat?
Lime or Oyster (calcium)?
I would like to offer them more than just not sure what all I should give them extra if they need it.
Thanks
