Let me be like every second new poster and apologize in advance if this has been answered and I missed it.
I have ducks and geese and after doing a lot of research (mostly on this site) looking for a soy-free feed for a reasonable price, I have come to the conclusion that no such thing exists.
As a result, I have been talking with ingredient manufactures and farm brokers about making a feed myself, but I keep finding posts up here from people looking for both soy and corn free feed.
I know that some people are allergic to soy and there is a growing body of research suggesting that soy intake throws off human hormone balance, but I haven’t found anything suggesting that corn (as an animal feed) is bad for either the birds or people eating the eggs / meat from corn fed birds.
i understand that corn is a carb source and needs to be fed in a proper proportion, but is there something else about it that I’m not aware of?
Thanks in advance.
