Homemade Feedmill Mix!

[3guysmine]

I'm feeling brave and I'd like to make the leap from store-bought bags of feed and into the realm of self mixed grains from local feed mill. Still in the research stage, I'd love to hear advise on what would be considered an ideal blend. My girls' ages range from 8wks to only as old as 12 weeks. Their nutrition needs are basically the same as they're all in the same stage of growth.
Available locally there's wheat, corn, black oil sunflower seeds, and a few others.
Thank you everyone for any thoughts on this subject!
