WTB 5 lbs Purina Flock Starter

[vlapinta]

This may seem like a strange request but I am looking for @5 lbs of Purina Flock Starter. I am willing pay for it and the shipping. I will even take more if its a good deal. Here is my problem. I am in NJ and no one sells flock starter here. I would have to order it on line and I don't need 50# of it! Our call ducks are supposed to hatch next week. We are down to 6 eggs. We just rescued 3 abandoned chicken eggs last night that had pipped. One hatched already.

Flock raiser pricing (for me) figures out to be about $.26 a pound. Shipping for 5# to 08753 is $8.87, 6#=$9.96, 7# or more would go by flat rate pricing, medium box for $10.20, lg. box for $13.95. I'd have to check and see how much would fit in either box, I'm not sure the volume on it.

But you could go to your local TSC and get a high protein chick starter, then just add niacin to it. That would also work. They should have smaller bags, like 25#.

Thanks for responding. I will check out what you said about the chick feed.
