How much Fertrell Poultry Nutri-Balancer for 50# of feed?

[Yardbirds286]

I am having a hard time finding how much Nutri Balancer to add to 50 or 100# of feed. The bag says 60# per 2000# of feed which is way more than I have. Help please

it's just math. I'll be happy to do it for you if you really need help, but I suspect you can figure it out.

I know this is an older post, but I just did this myself so I figured I could answer for future searchers...

0.48oz of Fertrell Nutri-Balancer per pound of feed.
or
24oz of Fertrell Nutri-Balancer Per 50 pounds of feed.
or
1.5lbs of Fertrell Nutri-Balancer Per 50 pounds of feed.

I just did the math on this, too ... to determine how much Nutri-balancer per serving of feed. In grams cuz that's a convenient unit of measure for small quantities and a kitchen scale.

I suck at math, but I think I figured:

IF a bird eats 1/3 lb of prepared poultry feed per day

THEN the "serving" of Nutri-Balancer should be about 4.5 grams.

Phew. I need a nap.

For 100 pounds of feed us 3 pounds of fertrell. 60/20=3 and 2000/20=100.

Add 3% by weight.
Weight of Feed X .03 = Weight of Fertrell's to add.
This works for both the English and Metric System...JJ
