I have used Purina, DuMor, and Nutrena. My birds have done their best on Nutrena.
In getting 20 fertile duck eggs soon so they'll be getting the All-Flock when they hatch, along with my adult drake Pekin.
When i had chickens they gobbled down nutrena like there was no tomorrow!
My duck looks his very best on Nutrena.
(My chickens did not like DuMor very much at all.)
 
I mix my own by buying several bags of this and that and mixing it myself. Usually Nutrena country feeds, mixed with 7 grain scratch, mixed with black oil sun flower seeds, two canisters of oat meal from the store, and a large container of cheyenne pepper flakes. Then they get free range of all the compost.
 
I use Dumor, and it is a fantastic feed.! My hens, roos, and ducks love it.! I get more eggs than I have ever gotten with any other feed too..
 
I have fed Blue Seal since I started with chickens in 1970 and I am very happy with it. If I get coupons from Purina I will buy a bag or two, but the price is so much higher than I want to pay. I tried Nutrena and Poulin but the protein level was lower. Agway has a new feed that has Flax meal as #1 ingredient. I buy that for them once in a while.
 
I use a local mill. Had them make a 18% mix that I ferment, Have oyster shell on the side. Had to get 500 lbs minimum bagged. Total was around $100.00
