My husbands recent 4 month hiatus from work due to a mystery
Illness that landed him in hospital and the subsequent down turn
In our finances has got me thinking about growing my own chicken
Feed crop. Does anyone form Ontario. Canada know a supplier
Of seed mix specifically formulated for pasture chickens. My goal is to
Be able to feed my flock on mostly "home grown" feeds and
reduce my dependence on commercially prepared crumbles.
It now costs between $15.00 and $18.00 per bag and with the cost Of
The 44 KLMS round trip to the nearest feed store ( in my F150)
The cost is probably nearer $20.00/ bag. On a fixed income I am unable
To buy in bulk so can't realize any savings that way. I do however
Have about 1/2 acre orchard that I could over seed for my Avian
Friends.
Thanks in advance
