Protein source when mixing your own feed

[Buster52]

So what do you folks use as a protein source when you mix your own feed? What is the content of your feed in general?

Thanks!

Never mind. I figured it out.

What did you come up with? I wouldn't have a clue where to start making a complete diet. I have snacks down pretty well, but a complete ration sounds far more intimidating.

Why are you trying to make your own? To keep costs down, have a better idea of what they are eating, or something else?

You'll get fishy eggs if that's your only source of protein. Too much omega fatty acids from any source (includes flaxseed and nuts) will give a fishy taste.

I use floating catfish food for protein in my daily feed. They love it.
