Happy Thanksgiving, all!! Beautiful here just south of Albany, but HEAVY snow! Wet and sticky!
I think my
TSC has two brands of organic, but they are literally 2X the price. I would be willing to pay $20 for a 50lb bag, but not $30! I have 36 chickens and that adds up at 1.5 bags per week!
I was actually looking for a locally sourced, natural feed, but not necessarily organic. We farm using organic, all-natural practices, but aren't "certified organic."
I would be fine with something locall milled but not designated "organic."
My chickens like Dumor fine, they're healthy, their eggs are great, they free-range in pasture, but I realize I can't advertise as organic or GMO-free.
That may be ok for my clientele and I can't push the price to $5. $4 is kind of stretching it as it is. I can't double the cost of feed and expect any return on these layers this spring.
Hubby had to check with me last night which one I wanted, it was supposed to be a surprise gift otherwise. He was looking at the Granite Ware, but instead have him getting the Presto. Would like an American, but a little too pricey for us to start with. He is heading out this morning to Bed Bath & Beyond with a 20% off coupon I had. Also have an incubator egg turner on my wish list. 
I'll skip the New Years Hatch-A-Long hoping for that turner, but after that..... *insert evil laugh here*
