Toddlers are Quackers

You can. You can also find a better meet bird feed! It should be around 28 to 30% protein. Adding dry dog or cat food will up the protein.

Isn't *game bird feed* a higher protein food?

Hello folks...am at work, so just checking in when I can...

I know corn is known for high calories /heat production, but will it increase muscle mass (edible weight /meat) or be stored as fat? Fat adds weight and flavors but doesn't increase edible muscle. A balance would be my goal.

I would think a balance between higher protein and letting them move around. High protein and no activity I would think would produce more fat. High protein and moderate activity I would think would produce more muscle mass.

It is supposed to be. Maybe that is the adult feed at 22%. I know my turkeys were on game bird and a meat bird feed. I swore they were the same. Both were higher than 22% though.
Of course, I only fed that to them in preparation for butchering. Sabrina (current turkey) is looking like a permanent resident for now. She gets regular feed

I heard about adding cat food to them I will keep looking for a good meat bird feed or something I think I am gonna separate them a bit from the others and just keep them in at night witht he rest so I know they get their food

C, there is another 2-y-old at least

 

[Chaos18]

A, I don't know who has what besides I have a 2 & a 6 and you have a 2
B, Was I right? that's shocking if I was even close.
C, I forgot the little one

Would you please unconfuse me? It is too much this early. Were you making ages up? And if you were, what do you mean you forgot the little one?
