Producer’s Pride brand from Tractor Supply.
I bought chicken leg and thighs for 59¢/ lb. this week and eggs are $5.00?
The avian flu doesn’t explain this, but messin with the feed does.
My youngest built a coop outside his house in the country. They have had good luck and he enjoys it.
I just hope he doesn’t get interested in Fusion Weapons as he would probably armchair that out himself as well.
In the interest of fairness we have been buying our chicken food from Tractor supply for at least 6 years. We either buy the Dumor mash or the Purina layena mash and the Flock Party five grain scratch. We are already getting eggs the last two weeks of January which never happens. We have never experienced any problems at all with their products.
Thanks for your report.
Eating chickens are a totally different breed and raised totally differently from egg-laying chickens.

Board of Directors

Anyone know any of the folks?
Beautiful Truth! Thank you and blessings!!
So the avian flu only hit egg laying birds??
Not buying it for now.
I gave you a fact. That is all.
The backyard chicken group is arguing vociferously about it too. Some people are saying there’s NO damned problem with the feed, others are saying they haven’t had an egg since August. Maybe the feed comes from more than one facility.
Taking a quick look at their bios they would seem to be more at home rubbing elbows at the World Economic Forum than hanging out at the farm.
Not that it makes the board of directors bad at their jobs, but they don’t look like the type that knows much about farming and agriculture.
It looks very enjoyable. I decided months ago that it probably wasn’t for me right now, but I keep popping back into the group because the people are so dear. Their chickens are more like pets. They post adorable pictures and give them cute names like “Soup.”
I stay out of tsc. They hardly ever have what I need because they do not restock what people buy most. Things like certain pvc fittings, cat food in cans, certain common bolts.
If you want good affordable gloves go to Atwood’s and get their branded ones by Wells Lamont.
Tsc is not even in the same league as Atwood’s or Orchlens or Menards.
Most of the folks around here that have a few chickens go to the local feed and stock store.
Locally grown feed.

Sounds liek our local grocery store- i find soemthign i really like- they sell out, and never restock it
Shame on you!
Debunking what others have *read* by relating your empirical experience!
So comforting to read that. Thank you!
I believe there was a vast amount of toxic sheetrock, too.
