FEED FORMULATION COLLECTION
|
|
To follow is part of my collection of poultry and gamebird feed 'recipes' I have collected over the years.
Some are simple, others are quite detailed.
Several are designed for specific regions of our country and others are formulated for a specific annual season.
I have chosen these formulas with two intentions. The health of the birds and saving money....in that order.
I am sharing these with the hope that you too will find one to fit your needs.

THE MILK FLUSH
for the treatment of
coccidiosis
4 lbs. of dried milk
2 lbs. of corn meal
2 lbs. of oatmeal
1 lb. of bran
This should be fed for 3-
5 days with no other feed except greens.
(why this works):
the large amount of milk
makes the chicks thirsty causing them to drink. The milk sugar will turn acid in the stomach and the added water will flush out the system. |

these formulas all worked equally well.
It is recommended that fish oil be added to feed where
the chicks are indoors and not exposed to any direct sunshine.

this feed is ground finely into a mash until the
birds are old enough to accept larger particles.
Eventually feed this with scratch grain.
