Chicken Feed Formula (makes 100 lbs)
1. 45 lbs of cracked ground Corn.
2. 24 ibs of Roasted And Processed Soybean Meal.
3. 10 lbs of Wheat Or Milo.
4. 5 lbs of Oats.
5. 3 lbs of Alfalfa Meal.
6. 3 lbs of Fish meal, black soldier fly meal, or animal protein meal.
7. 7 lbs of Fine oyster shell or limestone.
8. 1 lb of Dicalcium phosphate.
9. 1 lb Poultry vitamin/mineral premix.
10. 1/4 lb of Salt.
How to turn it into crumbles, Grind everything fairly small, You want the grain cracked/ground, not whole. Whole-grain mixes let chickens pick out what they like and leave the rest. Mix dry ingredients thoroughly, Mix the corn, soybean meal, wheat, oats, alfalfa, protein meal, calcium, phosphate, salt, and premix until it is uniform. Add a little moisture/binder, Mist it lightly with water while mixing. You can also use a little molasses as a binder, but do not overdo it. You want it damp enough to press, not wet like dough. , Run it through a pellet mill, A small farm pellet mill with about a 1/8" to 3/16" die would work. For chickens, smaller pellets crumble easier. Dry the pellets, Spread them out with airflow until they are dry and hard. Moist feed can mold fast. Break the pellets into crumbles, Run the dried pellets through a roller, grain mill opened wide, or lightly crush them. Then screen them: Oversized pieces go back through the crusher. Dust/fines can be mixed into the next batch. Good crumbles are small chunky pieces, not powder. It is acually cheaper to buy Chicken Feed In Bulk using Large Pallet Bags (Listed Above).
