feed

[kardar2]

Hello,
Well my chicks are growing fast. So I am now investigating our feed. Yes this subject has come up a lot. My local feed store sells Farmers best big white bag with no ingredients printed so I went to their Website: http://www.farmerswarehouse.com I am going to call them today and ask questions. So does any one know this company good, bad? I like to support the little guy in town We have a Tractor supply here in town. But I might be going to a big chain store. Thanks karl
