It is important to feed your backyard chickens a healthy, nutritious diet. You can select quality ingredients to mix your own chicken feed or purchase ready-made mixes. Perhaps the easiest thing to do is buy one of the mixes. They usually come in 50 or 100 pound sacks and are designed specifically for the age, type and purpose of the chicken. Buying chicken feed does not have to be complicated.
If you are looking for a smaller quantity, try your local tractor supply store. Check the yellow pages for locations. The feed mill is another option. You may not find a listing for the town’s feed mill in the yellow pages. However, you can usually locate the mill on your own by looking for a tall cylinder shaped structure. You can also do an online search for facilities licensed by the FDA. Likewise, the Amish community also makes chicken feed. This source is valuable, especially if you are looking for organic feed mixes.
