#5066 Whole Grain Layer
Use: Modesto Milling has created an 18% protein layer mix that is half whole grains (wheat, peas, red milo, barley, oats, black oil sunflower seeds). We know there are a number of folks who prefer to feed whole grains to their chickens. They want their backyard flock to eat the grain just as it was harvested from the field. In addition to raw grains, all the loose ingredients are blended with alfalfa and flax seed which makes a nice green pellet which adds to the eye appeal and stimulates the hen to eat while reducing waste.
Ingredients: Organic stabilized rice bran, organic wheat, organic barley, organic peas, organic milo, ground limestone, organic sunflower seed, sun-dried alfalfa, organic oats, organic flaxseed, monocalcium phosphate, diatomaceous earth, organic kelp meal, hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate, hydrated sodium aluminosilicate, salt, DL-methionine, organic flavors (garlic, horseradish, anise oil, juniper berries oil), choline chloride, extracted citric acid presscake, ferrous sulfate, manganous oxide, dehydrated aspergillus niger fermentation product, zinc oxide, niacin supplement, copper sulfate, sodium selenite, d-alpha tocopheryl acetate, calcium pantothenate, biotin, vitamin a supplement, vitamin D3 supplement, riboflavin supplement, hydrochloride, pyridoxine menadione nicotinamide vitamin B12 bisulfite, supplement, ethylenediamine dihydriodide, folic acid
Guaranteed analysis: Crude protein min 18%, crude fat 5.3%, crude fiber max 7.3%, ash max 15.6%
Grains? Whole grain feeds are gaining popularity amongst poultry owners, with many people choosing to try to mix their own feeds. The process can be trickier than you would think, though. No individual grain will satisfy the whole flock’s dietary needs, which is one reason Modesto Milling uses six whole grains when other feed producers use three. Some loose ingredients, like powders and mashes, are also difficult for chickens to eat. This is why the pelletization of these ingredients is critical to visual appeal and reduction in feed waste and mess.
Estimate Ration: 1 Layer hen = About 2.5 pounds of feed per week.
