Hello!
So I'm going to working with someone to raise 40 turkeys will be broad breasted white. Plus 20-40 chickens half of the chickens with be broilers like Cornish cross or freedom rangers. The rest will be a mix of layer breeds.
My question is if I have buy a half ton of 25% protien turkey starter. How many parts of corn or wheat can I add to the turkey starter to lower the protein to around 18%-20% as they age. I will be fermenting feed to save $ as well as rotationally grazing between paddocks on about 2 acres. I don't want to be over feeding but it costs more to get separate feeds when the main difference as far as i can tell between them is the amount of protein.
