Thankyou so much for the info. I'll be putting Eagledove on my list to stop by next time I'm in Asheville.

Our local feedstore chain here is called Zamzows, and they are known for high quality feed and pet-food.

I've been raising my chickens on their stuff, and they're sleek and happy girls. For extra calcium, I feed their shells back to them (silly things think it's a treat).

I use Layena. I don't want the soy, or corn as first ingredients. And oyster shell free choice in a bowl, and lots of leftovers, and free range.
My neighbor was feeding only SCRATCH for the past year, needless to say, a chicken broke her leg below the knee. She now lives with me. I had told him many times about feed, and the numnut at the feedstore told him feed is really bad for his rooster! (12 hens!)

Well you have no idea what the first ingredient in Purina Layena is unfortunately.

Corn? Bingo!!

Maybe layena is just glorified scratch with calcium added to it.

The Chinese have grown and eaten soy beans and I am sure the wild fowl of southeast Asia ate it also. When did soy become poison?

Chinese eat their soy fermented, big difference.

Nobody eats soybeans raw... and lives to talk about it. The stuff we feed our chickens is heated to kill the inhibitors.

It's the genetically modified that I am trying to avoid. Now it's hard to find soy that hasn't been tinkered with in the lab.
