Is it eating chicken nuggets..? ;)
 
Is it eating chicken nuggets..? ;)

Oh, I'm just wanting to see what folks say.

I can't seem to find a non-vegetarian feed that's easily obtainable fresh even if willing to pay more (I've tried). So I'm with Purina Flock Raiser, which they are doing well on - it's vegetarian. I'm adding BOSS as a "breeder" ration (a bit a day) per advice form some folks over on the Breeding for Production thread. The Gamebird/Showbird feed is expensive, but more importantly, I've never found it fresh. At the Tractor Supply I frequent the most, the bags indicate a manufacture date of October, 2014...

So... I'm interested in the replies!

Ya, it was my poor attempt at making a meaty joke... nuggets instead of "vegetarian" popcorn. ;)

I went over to the feed section after asking here.. wow this is a big issue. No real answers I could find yet though.

The gamebird feed gets used up very well at my feed store so they stay 'fresh'. Once, I saw a guy load up 50 bags of it.. that's the only reason I even entertained this idea at all.

I do miss the days I was feeding gamebird feed to everything, the birds did very well on it. If I had just a few chickens, they would have still been on it. But now I am wondering about the animal protein in these since converting to vegetarian is so widespread.

What is BOSS supposed to add for the birds..?
 
Got a few pics from today, before I let them free range.

This one hatched last year. I don't like how her tail stands upright, but she is pretty big and great layer of big eggs.

Mottled?!? She has more white feathers under the wings. I see that when she flapps with her wings.

Can somebody say what color are these and what will they produce with my columbian rooster? I really like it, and they are a bit darker in person. Nn one is exceptional broody. The best we have ever had.

These two are favourites.

If you tap the picture, it will show better.
