An interesting study here http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0921448815000528 shows goat kids from mums fed GM soy had stunted growth

Interesting - or was it that the non-GM kids had better than normal growth?  Probably need further study - must be difficult for folks in the US to get non-GM.  Doesn't say what the GM proportion of overall feed was.

It's not so easy in this country. I did have my girls on Allen and Page with is GM-free but none of my local suppliers will get it for me, even though they stock other Allen and Page feeds, such as chicken feed. I could order it direct but the postage doubles the price. I'm left with having to buy what I can get rather than what I choose.

I find it quite difficult to buy in Non GM feed for the animals, but there are a few suppliers who do Non GM and GM which I know of, but it is really only for cattle.

Fancy Feeds do GM free goat feed. Mine love the molassed one. It is cheaper than A&P and in a larger bag!

Have you tried complaining to A&P about this?  You may be able to do a deal with them whereby you buy it directly from them but collect it from one of their stockists in your area.  I'm fortunate that a supplier in my area was making up a pallet of randoms for specific orders and was quite happy to add a few bags of Organic and a few bags of Smallholder at no extra charge.  Neither of the products were standard stock for them but they have said if I want more just to let them know and they'll do the same again.

Thanks, Scarlet Dragon. I hadn't thought of that.
