Marriages Layer Pellets (GM free) £7.60 for 20kg bag)
Mixed corn - um, about the same.
If you order a pallet load (tonne), it's delivered free. They'll do a mixed pallet, so I get sheep pellets and pig food from them as well.

With the cost of diesel plus the cost of my time, I reckon it's worth it. Plus I'm not tempted to buy "stuff" in a shop.

All marriages feeds are GM free. They do 3 pig feeds as far as I know, Grower no.1 pellets for young piglets, Grower no.2 for weaner to porker, and sow cubes. Their website is quite good for info.

Bert - did you try your nearest farms? I just cheekily asked and they have been selling me their own produced wheat for 4.50 / 20 kg for years now. If your neighbours don't do that they might be ble to give you a hint towards a farm that sells on feed - many do! :&>

I used to buy 20kg bags of Marriages for the chooks and the pigs from where I work for about £7.80 a bag. Not any more since I found out that Wynnstay down the road do 25 kg bags for the same price.
