#1 where are you getting organic for 19.99/bag? #2 Where are you getting layer for for $13.99/bag? I am paying between $16-$18 for a 50# bag of Dels brand or Payback. Organic runs about $35. If I could get organic feed for $20/bag I would make the drive across the valley. Although no corn now soy.. what does that leave? lol
#1: I get my non-gmo feed at Bills (Country Farm and Feed) in Enumclaw.
#2) I used to get the layer at Del's also in Enumclaw but I switched a while back to the organic stuff. Prices may have gone up since then. I know that Bill's layer feed is way more than Del's but Del's doesn't have the organic stuff like Bill's does.
Honestly I'm not sure what all is in the no-corn/no-soy stuff but I know my chickens LOVE it and I've noticed a difference in the color of my egg yolks too. They're so much brighter. I think it's totally worth the extra few bucks to spend on it. Plus, when selling my eggs for eating people really like to know that the chickens are fed a non-gmo diet.
Patriot Feeds makes the non-gmo feed. They're based near Olympia and there's only a couple local feed stores that have it shipped to them to sell. Bills is one and I believe there's one in Tacoma now that does too. I'm not sure of the name but that might be closer for you than Enumclaw.![]()

Yes I know where to get Patriot Feeds but its no where near $20/50# bag. IN fact I think its $30 for a 25# bag. Dels layer pellet/crumble is @ $15.99 as of 4:12pm today Just off Roy Y.
EDIT: Oh nvm just saw the ingredients for the Non gmo feed. No longer interested but thanks for the info.
On Thursday it will be 3 weeks since I put your eggs under my broody girl. Can't wait to see if any hatch!!!one of my hens just started laying... I can bring 2-3 eggs to work with me tomorrow. Not sure if they will all be fertile but when I checked the latest egg it was fertile. They are EExBCMx?... Let me know if you want them.
what company is that ?I buy 50 lb bags of non-GMO, no-corn, no-soy organic feed for $19.99/bag here in Enumclaw. That's top of the line best stuff you can get. You should be able to find your feed cheaper. Just regular plain old layer feed is something like $13.99 per 50 lb bag of the 'Excell' or 'Dells' brand. I hope you can find something cheaper, sorry you're having to pay that much!

Hi There,
There are a few other places if you're ever out and about. Watch the ads for Wilco in Gig Harbor; Drive Thru feed on Key Peninsula carries Excel as does a Redneck Feed at 1871 NE Old Belfair Hwy (they sell at their farm, easy to miss, great people), and Dels has a store in Port Orchard. I generally try to buy feed when I know I'm going to be near one of these places for some other reason. Cenex always seems pretty spendy to me.
What brand are you buying that's in just a 20# bag, that's awfully small.
