Poultry Farmers whose hens have stopped laying. Try this:

@BizSuitStacy So, basically, Black Rock, supporter of the the NWO, ESG, WHO and so on, is a major stock holder in Purina and Tractor Supply.

* Farmers can purchase goat feed and the hens begin to lay again.
* Locally sourced oats, corn and sunflower seed and any grain on sale can be mixed to make chicken feed.

@4meAndyou Thanks for the bc.. My understanding is that Purina uses various co-ops to produce their chicken feed. Apparently, Purina also packages the feed for Tractor Supply. So, they're respective feed is likely produced by the same sources. With high inflation, I could see where a producer may look to cut costs, and perhaps reduce the amount of protein, or use a cheaper source of protein. However, the connection between protein consumption and egg production in chickens is well understood. If they alter the formula, they had to know it's potential impact with respect to egg production. Kind of fishy given the other food supply issues we're experiencing.

@BizSuitStacy You are most welcome, re: BC. You and Cherokeepatti are both very well informed.

@cherokeepatti That will work for small scale farmers, for sure. The goat feed is the best immediate solution for large chicken farms.

@4meAndyou or buy grain from independent farmers. My uncle raised milo grain, it puts on large seed heads and produces quite a bit. We’d give the chickens handfuls of that every day and corn too, veggie and fruit scraps, seeds from cantaloupe and melons that we raised etc. Then they’d pick around and find bugs or worms to eat.

@cherokeepatti When I was VERY little my parent's had a garbage pail sunk in the ground in the back yard with a step on iron lid. Once a week the pig farmers would come around and pick up the garbage.
