Quail layer feed

[Timothy Menezes]

What do you guys think of this quail layer feed? Just found out they carried it last week so picked up a bag to try.

@Kiki @007Sean are both really good resources for feed.
From a quail-only standpoint, I would say it’s good overall but maybe a bit low calcium but true decision with price because others have had good results with regular layer feed.
Bottom looks pretty good as a starter feed to me

I think the quail layer feed would be just fine.

It's $10 for 25 lbs, the regular chicken layer is a little cheaper, but close enough that it doesn't make much of a difference. Bought a bag just to try.

Oh an the pheasant starter is supposed to be the best starter they have for quail. They said the turkey starter was fine, but this would be better. It's also a dollar or 2 cheaper than the turkey starter so figured I'd give it a shot as well.

The layer feed looks good for adults. The pheasant starter would be good for chicks.

I think it looks pretty good. Compared to mine, the fiber and phosphorus is a bit high but I'm thinking it would work ok. The Pheasant crumbles look to be perfect all around. Do they also sell larger bags of the two feeds?

The pheasant I bought was in a 50lb bag, the quail layer feed was only in 25lb when I stopped by. They said they could get some in 50lb bags, or even 2,000 lb bins if I wanted lol.

They are a large feed mill so they will do it however you want. They send huge semi trucks of waterfowl feed they send to Metzer Farms for their ducks on a weekly basis.

They are super friendly, an even offered to let me contact their specialist that designs the feed blends. I wish I could start a large quail farm so I could take advantage of such a valuable resource that others would just love to have close by.

WOW, I don't know where I'd put a 2000 lb bin, much less how I'd move it.
