Im ordering organic layers in bags from local agent. As I have less birds buying in 1 tonne bulk is too excessive and the p&p is £50. Its usually around £500. I cant justify this no longer. I am slowly taking my numbers down.
I can buy from HJ Lea Oaks bags of layers at 17% protein by have to pay a small delivery supplement. So more I buy the cheaper it will be as I can stock pile in the container (within reason)
Im taking delivery of table birds on Friday so wont need feed for a month. But thinking of a way of supplementing the 17% to 19% to avoid hassle of buying in more feed with more delivery overhead. How can I do this or is it impossible due to do as the logistics with organic and finding additional feed because its organic (our farming principals and what we live to).
My last table birds weren't great either. So information on feeding regimes would be helpful.
