Re: [CHICKENS-101] Random Question

 

Raina, Sounds like a good plan.  I use the same poultry conditioner and other ingredients, along with brewers yeast except instead of peas and canola, my feed is made with organic fish meal sold by Fertrell.  Organic wheat is first, oats corn, white millet, and sunflower hearts.  I had mine made at 18-20% depending on if it is cold out, if they are molting, and if I have chicks my feed is made so all can eat it. Oyster shell on the side.  I put in an order for 1500lbs at 20% made so all can eat it. Chickens need animal protein.

> After a couple of years of trial and error and a lot of research, we now offer soy-free organic layer pellets and chick starter/grower crumble mixes. Poultry diets require a balanced level of amino acids to achieve a standard level of production. Most plant-sourced proteins fail to provide those specific amino acids. Organic canola seed meal and organic peas are the best combination of plant proteins to accomplish these goals.

> Many customers have asked to purchase a soy-free alternative to our soybean meal-based feeds for reasons of personal health and nutritional philosophy. Research lead by the Weston A. Price Foundationhttp://www.westonaprice.org/soy-alert has featured articles on the subjects of human diets, non-toxic agriculture and holistic therapies. As these efforts of education, research and activism gain momentum, it has become economically practical for Modesto Milling to manufacture these specialty formulations. We look forward to working with breeders seeking the soy-free feed option for their poultry.
