Just curious to what people are paying right now per ton of layer and starter/grower?Right now buying it per ton at the feed mill is costing me 330 for layer and 340 for starter/grower.With all new hatching and the chicks taking over I use about 200 pounds of starter per day. With the adults I am using about 250 pounds of layer per day. So the tons are adding up quiet a bit and the price is soaring even faster even with the harvest of feed products starting to boom.
>Dusty's wife< Thanks so much for all your input.. Man I love this helpful site.. lol
Starter for us was between 275-290 this year. Grower 1 was somewhere around 265 that is 24%. Grower 2 is 245 that is 21% and maintenance is somewhere around 230 and that is 17%.
Next year we hope to add a few silos and hopefully a feed grinder so we can buy bulk corn, millo and maze and grind up some of our own feed.
