Organic Chicken Feed/ Chicken Soap!

Arsenic? Yes, it is added to store brand feed to make chickens grow faster. Brand Name Chicken Products sold in American supermarkets and fast food restaurants are widely contaminated with arsenic, according to independent test results released 4/2006 by the Institute for Agriculture.
This is largely due to Arsenic and other chemicals added to poultry feed.

Almost all corn and seed is harvested with ROUND UP- THIS FEED IS NOT-Complete Lab results included with nutritional analysis included.

Another point to new chicken owners: You will notice an almost immediate difference in the smell of the feces from your chickens. It will not smell as rancid, or putrid! It will smell more earthy, and more like grass, because of the pure food you are feeding them and the improvement of their diet. Add mung beans, sprouts, and worms to their diet. Winter will leave slim pickings, so if you can order some beans to sprout, you should!

If you can find an additive-free feed you are fortunate, but the trend is going that way. The general ingredients of all feedstuffs are listed on the label in descending order of weight but very few feed mills will tell you precisely which ingredients they use; they talk in terms of protein percentage but it is the type of protein which is important. The finest and best value protein, as the hen can use it all and therefore needs less of it, is fishmeal. Grain in the form of wheat is a good diet but more protein and minerals are needed for optimal egg production. Go for the best feed you can afford in order to produce the best birds. It is possible to get feed made up to your own formula if enough people get together to use it within its shelf life. As a treat, poultry will love any vegetable household food scraps or the occasional piece of stale brown bread.

Mash: a blend of feed ingredients, ground to a small size but not to a powder; mash can be in pellet form

Pellets: small kernels of compressed mash

Concentrate: a blend of protein-rich foods, plus any other nutrients desired; usually fed together with a grain ration

Scratch: grains fed separately to chickens, usually scattered on the ground or litter of the coop

Grit: angular, hard crushed rock, preferably from granite, used by the chickens in place of "teeth" --- seashells and bone CANNOT substitute for grit; grit should be free-choiced several times a month at least

Calcium: provided by sea shells, crushed bone, and fresh or dried greens --- amounts need to be measured closely, if not free range

Protein: any food high in amino acids, used to build tissues; protein quality is determined by the "completeness" of the amino acid varieties in the food source; basically, meats, nuts, seed germs, and soy concentrates are protein sources

Amino acid: a molecule that is one building block of protein; there are many different amino acids, most of which can be manufactured in the body; the few that cannot must be supplied by foods

Vitamins: a general term meaning "life-giving"; see RECIPES section for which ones to use

Minerals: inert chemicals found in nature; kelp of all kinds supplies the complete spectrum of minerals

Free range: not controlled by fences, able to get to fresh greens and insects; as commercially used, this term allows fences, with minimum amount of space per bird being set by definition
