Yes, the availability is kinda an issue here. But thnx, I think im buying the " Manna pro gamebird starter"! He (my son) needs to get his feet wet first ;-)
Thnx
You can order Hudson feeds gamebird starter from Chewy, it’s about $34 for 50 lbs. you can also order gamebird starter from HHfeed (not homestead harvest) and they ship anywhere in the continental us, however they are pricey, at like $33 for 20 lbs, but the feed is excellent, I use it for my albinos. Homestead Harvest is available on
amazon for maybe $30 for 40-50 lbs, but I found it terrible. It clogs my feeder, and if it gets wet it becomes cement boots stuck to their feet. I recently found a local feed store that carries southern states gamebird starter, which is $21.50 for 50 lbs, and I use that now, however the birds who were on the Hudson feed don’t like the change from their pellets to crumble, so I’ve been ordering a bag of Hudson for them from chewy, and giving everyone else the southern states. In our current 2 feet of snow, my husband dug out my feed buckets for me, and I had to keep being like, “no this is the wrong one” and he trudged back out to dig out the next bucket, mumbling about why they can’t all eat the same thing haha.
IMO southern states is amazing, it’s as good as hhfeed imo and less than half the price. My chicks grow quickly and feather so fast. If you can’t find it by you, I think Hudson feed from Chewy is a great option, but needs to ride the blender for chicks to eat because it’s pellets.
