Unsecure chicken perches

Anyone use Bearts Layers/Growers pellets?? how have you found them? They are a lot cheaper than some but I have been told that they are pretty good but I would like your opinions. Good and Bad.

Never tried the brands you've mentioned Cookie,but mine are currently on 'Farmgate' mash from Bottisham and i must say their appetite for this stuff is very very good.Its a lot more grainier than Dodson & Horrells mash,but it dont have the pleasing smell.

Have switched to Gavro, hugely expensive, but they looove it

I'm a fancy feeds girl

[Cooks]

well mine are on garvo but the availability for me is a problem if I suddenly need more feed so I was thinking of switching to a feed I can get locally.

 

Stevie does bottisham only sell mash?? thats only up the road from me and I have read about farmgate last night on the net funny enough.

 

mine hated fancy feeds .. shame as it was cheap.

I switch around but haven't seen that brand around here.

 

Mine usually get Smallholder pellets, tried the Dodson & Horrell mash, but they hated it and made such a mess. They like Garvo mash, but it's hard for me to get as the stockist near here isn't open at weekends. They do make such a mess with mash too, despite having non-mess feeders!

 

If you want a pet disinfectant, then try Virkon, Bio VX, Viratec P or Barrier V1

yup I made a boo boo once and bought mash instead of layers (the bacgs are really alike on smallholders) so I gave the part used sack to Redwing, it drove me crazy with the mess they made.. :lol: I felt like following them around with a dustpan and brush..

Yes-only mash Cookie,but i find chooks prefer it over pellets and atleast im guaranteed they're eating.Its about £7 per bag which is about same as Dodson & Horrells,but like i said earlier-it dont have the nice smell for some reason.Infact it dont really smell of anything,but the chooks like it which is what matters.

thanks Stevie

I have mash and pellets in the winter & make the mash up into porridge for the little darlings at teatime..once the weather warms up properly I shall stop the mash porridge again

 

Yes I know I can make porridge from pellets, but I just prefer to make it from mash..and the feathered ones think it's a treat as it's different & is served in bowls rather than the feeders Bless them

 

Mine were less than impressed with the Farmgate stuff......they are Smallholders Free Range girls , never heard of the Beardy one Cookie
