Hi everyone! I just read the first 8 pages of the feed recipe thread and wound up horribly confused. I need a simple recipe for a mixed-flock feed that I can have mixed up at a local grain elevator.
I am feeding about a dozen adult layer hens, a couple of spent/non-laying hens, 3 muscovies (2 hens and a drake) , 2 east-India ducks (hen and drake), a guinea hen, 2 roosters, and assorted chicks in various stages of growth. They all live together and share feeders.
They free range all day. I get them whole-grain bread and mushy produce for treats.
I would prefer a vegearain feed. Also, I have been feeding Purena Layena with Omega 3 because my son and I are vegeatrains and that is all the Omega 3 we get.
My goals for doing this are 1) save money, 2) allow the non-laying population to eat without taking in excess calcium 3) improve my birds' diets.
What do you all suggest?
