try 30 something for a 50 lb bag.....oh Im in Va.
I have roughly 60 birds. Fed twice a day, and they finish it all!Chicken layer pellet (16% protein) here is $14 for 50 lb. Wild bird seeds $13-14 for 40 lb. Peas is $.78-.89 per lb. Chicken scratch is $10 for 40 lb. I think $16 for 12-14% protein pigeon bag. Prices don't seem to go down.
Msfreebird,
You consume 1 bag per week? How many birds do you have? That is crazy expenditure.
do you measure your feed?....$26.00/50 lb, and I go thru 1 bag per week
(it was $16.00 last year!)
PLUS, I mix safflower seed in it.
Yes. The loft birds (about 45) get a 1lb coffee can scoop.do you measure your feed?....
sounds about right, maybe a bit over, I have 23 birds and they get 24 ounces in a day which is 3 cups I do beleive....so I think 2 cups sounds right and if they are eating all of it your good....Yes. The loft birds (about 45) get a 1lb coffee can scoop.
The fantails (15) get 2 1/2 cups.
Twice a day. Is that too much? Its gone in about 15 minutes!
