I finally had to start purchasing in bulk at my feed store.. Lucky for me the guy is awesome and gives me a huge discount...

Holy COW!

How many critters are you feeding with all of that?!

 

[Steve_of_sandspoultry]

It's 2500 pounds of chicken feed, 2 or 3 hundred pound bags of whole corn and the rabbit feed.

Just off the top of my head there is about 250 birds out there..... ish. Lasts about 3 weeks

It give us something to do in our free time.

Oh ya and taking care of that many birds and all the chores that go with it makes you sleep very well at night. Some people call it exhaustion.
