i want to start a feed club so food can be ordered in large quantities and distributed between the members the more to join the cheaper it gets i have a large secured shed to store the feed till its collected it is also covered by cctv with night vision camera they are hidden  but cover a large area there is a private drive way i buy 2 sacks every 2 weeks all the details will be worked out once we get enough interested people

It might help get some interest if you could give an example of what people might save and how much feed you need to buy to get the discounts.

Well as of now i get 25kg bags for £12.95 including delivery but if say we buy 50 at a time the would be as low as £8 a sack or cheaper

[sokel]

We can get 20kg sacks of layers for £6.50 a sack if you buy  20 or more sacks of feed but the 20 can be any feed at all

£12.95 per bag is an extortionate price You must be living somewhere that's extremely remote.

Indeed it is. You are being properly ripped off there.

Well I saw a Dodson & Horrell bag of layers pellets for that kind of price in the local petshop (some kind of chain),never thought anyone would pay this kind of price for layers pellets. Ours are between 6 and 7 pounds for 20kg bag from agri merchant.

prices have gone down a bit , so I've heard. It does not really reflect that much on the retail price in Fife. In Newburgh  OH paid £ 9 last for Spillers pellets but I have paid up to £9.80 elsewhere. Higher than that I've only seen at PetsAtHome - where I went for information purposes only....Which brand are you considering to get, DF, and where in Fife are you?

Wow £12.95 that makes me feel better  . I pay £11 for a 20 kg sake here. But that is for a bag of mixed corn. I don't know how prices compare between layers & mixed corn.
 If I was closer to you I would of  been happy to join the feed club. I think it's a great idea 

[Bodger]

just to get things into perspective, I'm currently paying £4.50 for a 25kg bag of whole wheat.

[northfifeduckling]

£ 5 for 20 kg here but that's directly from the grower

[Cactus Jack]

20kg bag costs 14€  or about £12
So my chickens eat the same as the pigs which means no chicken for the pigs
No additives either. Laying everyday. Good shells with deep coloured yolks, organic and very tasty

Bugger I just realised you get 25 kg sacks. So you are still getting your feed a little cheaper than me. Now that is  annoying . I thought I was doing well with my £11 for a 20 kg sack for a while  .

[demonfarmer2630]

I'm in kennoway if you guys can get them that cheap please let me know where as I could do with stocking up a few bags I usually give them a 50\50 mix of layer pellets and corn if anyone near me dosnt mind ordering a few for me lol

[bigchicken]

A good idea but where do you get your feed, I pay £9-00 odds for layers pellets and for the month of January at one place it was £8-00 for mixed corn  The three main feed places nearest are all about the same and that is retail prices. Whole sale prices will be a bit less. What do other Fife folk pay and who is your supplier.
