Corn & Soy-Free
People often react negatively to soy and excessive consumption can have estrogenic effects, while its use in feed increases phytic acid consumption, thus restricting absorption of certain nutrients. Due to these concerns, we formulated a soy-free four layer feed for our chickens consisting of organic wheat, barley, flax seed meal (organic flax seed compared with traditional cornflakes) field peas peanut meal crab meal Fertrell Poultry Nutri-balancer (Monocalcium Phosphate plus dehydrated kelp meal) salt plus vitamins E supplement (DL-alpha tocopheryl Acetate + Dl-calcium pantothenate + Riboflavin supplements + Pyridoxine hydrochloride) plus cold-pressed oils for optimal performance.
