Food

We make / mix our own.  Look closely at the feather sheen, color and overall health of our flock and you'll see why we go to such effort.  All ingredients are as fresh as we can locate.  

BEAN MIX:

Over 21 ingrediants of human grade foodstuff.  This is a mixture developed over the years that contains a wide variety of grains, beans, rice and seed.  We cook ours in boiling water for 45 mins, drain and rinse and add frozen mixed vegetables plus pasta, shredded yams, and raisins.  It is not a soak and cook and does not require a prerinse.  This is the staple meal we provide to all birds here.

Here is what it looks like before cooking:


And here's what it looks like ready to serve:
