The last blanket has gone out. Once I have pictures I will do 1 post with everyone's blanket featured so y'all can see them all together ~ & be secretly pleased that your own particular blanket is actually the very best one of all.
@MaryJanet : My first ever flock I used cheap pellets. I can't say the girls were ever overly fussed. This time around I had a chat with my supplier. Her reasoning went something like this: She uses crumble because it's a lot harder for the girls to pick out only the bits they like so they will get much better nutritional value from their feed & it is far easier for them to eat. They also hate change so I kept with what they were used to & have had no feed issues. What is something of a problem is it is much easier for the girls to toss the crumble around ~ something they manage to do even with a treadle feeder so you may have a little more wastage. I buy 2 bags @ a time & it generally lasts me a little over a month for 10 birds. They are supplemented [sometimes quite heavily] with vegetable scraps though I do try & abide by the 10% rule.
Let us know how it goes.
