Falkor Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I don't use it but you can get 5kg bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy kc Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I use it and you can get 2 kilo bags near me. I usually buy 20kg at a time though. Already on my 2nd hatch of the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jools Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I always use it now and then move onto medicated growers for at least one sack before switching to A&P growers. The medicated feed I get is from WCF and it's their own brand (or milled locally, I can't remember which). I know it's only coincidence but the one year I didn't, two out of five chicks had serious growth problems that materialised at around 6 wks and while I had them pm'd, I never did find out the cause. I wouldn't want to tempt that kind of fate again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarlettohara Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 Have tried to find some online but think I'll have to get the Marriages from Omlet as nowhere near me sells it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I get my Marriages med feed from Thornes in Letchworth I've never seen medicated feed in 5kg which is a pain but then with the numbers I raise its not a problem to get 20kg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarlettohara Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 I'll have to pass it on to you after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I use medicated crumb, after losing some chicks to Cocci when I used A&P crumb, and I don't ever want to go through that again. My feed merchant orders it in for me and 20kg lasts a while here. It's made by BOCM and whilst not the best quality it'll do. On the plus side however the plastic bag it comes in is good for growing potatoes in I'm almost at the end of a bag of it and my potatoes are ready and waiting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
