>We have Producers Co-Op here and I've been a member for about 10 years. The prices are hard to compare because it's their own brand being they mix their own grains etc... I pay $8.15 for Gamebird Starter non medicated. I pay $4.70 for chicken scratch and I use compu-lay for my hens during breeding time only. I pay $7.10 for it. Are ya'll using any of the Crushed oyster shell? I have heard that it really helps the birds digestive system and help keep down bugs like ants etc...The price for the Oyster shell, 50 lb bag is $6.75. Also, I was told by the guy I got my first breeders of Goldens that it really enhances their color and quality. I don't know how true this is because It's just hear-say but it seems to be working for me.
Can anyone tell me why they use the oyster shell and what they use it for. Is this the correct info I got on that subject? I"ve been maning to ask this for a long time but always forget! LOL
