Pauline@TheMadhouse Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Hi, I'm new and have just received my cube and 4 birds. Have been advised that maize is a good feed supplement to ensure better yolk colour. I've had a look around on t'internet and can find only mixed grain with up to 20% maize. Is this the stuff to use or can I find organic 100% maize feed. Would prefer to stay organic. Looking fwd to your advice!!! Thanks, Pauline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hen Watch Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Hi Pauline and welcome to the forum. Omlet supply Organic Mixed Corn - 20kg Sack £10 plus P+P - which is corn and maize mixed. It's from the organic feed company (see below) so I'm not sure what the corn/maize ratio is. I'm sure Omlet will tell you. http://www.omlet.co.uk/shop/shop.php?cat=Chicken%20Extras&sub=food&product_id=231 Allen & Page supply Organic Mixed Corn which is 85% org wheat and 15% org maize in smaller 5kg bags for £3.49 but postage is high. http://www.organicfeed.co.uk/ Or you can get Mixed Corn in their small-holder range that is GM free. CWF Mixed Corn 25kg non-organic £5.79 http://www.countrywidefarmers.co.uk 40 branches in UK. Just to say mixed corn is like sweeties to chickens, makes them fat, so as a treat only.
