OKAY.......... I have no idea what to feed my silkies now! lol I have chicks right now and plan on putting them on dumor chick starter. What protein percentage should I buy for the adults? I will probably buy the 20% dumor instead of the 16% layer crumble. I hear that the 20% protein instead of the 16% one gives the chickens better feathers and the eggs are healthier. I am also considering the purina flock raiser because its the only purina feed that doesnt have marigold extract which turns the feathers yellow. Does the purina flock raiser have animal proteins? Anyways, once I decide on the main commercial food, I want to mix things in it. For every 50lbs of commercial feed, what do you add? I hear a lot of percentages and how many parts I should have in my feed but I dont understand any of that. I want to know what I should add to 50lbs of feed. I was thinking 1 pound of wheat, corn, alfalfa, flax seed, sunflower seeds, and kelp. Is that too little to add to my feed? I have no idea on what Im doing lol
Bottom line, I want to know your chicken feed recipe preferably in pounds not percentages and parts. Thanks!
