There are several good layer feeds available. If you are looking more for egg production and allow some free range or a good size space Big-V and Nutrena work well. If they are more confined look into evergreen, US suppliers or Shawnee Mills.

Howdy Ya'll!

Been busy last few days...stock-show, grading, funerals, buddy passed away...in general life happened!

On the chicken front...my stupid golden duck wing roo got out and raised all sorts of cain! I don't think Bob took it well being beat down and my jungle fowl dude won't come out of hiding...my EE bantam still thinks he is tough...well...he was chasing a hen anyways...until it ran past that big game bird! Didn't know roosters cold slide like a cuttin' horse!

I am the same way about the acreage! I'll bet in your area you'll be fine with a rooster - I think they are no worse than barking dogs and if your silkie is a roo maybe your neighbors will be fine with it.

It's next weekend, Teach. I'll drive out Friday the 11th and come back Sunday the 13th. I have a cousin getting married in Texhoma on Saturday. Do you need me to transport anything to or fro?

You should definitely visit my folks' place and see what Dad has going on out there. It's hard for me to supervise him from this distance.
