I have a bunch of grower pellets yet, but I ordered 1 and 1/2 tons of
Game Bird Breeder this week to try to beat the expected higher prices. Three of us order 3 or more tons at a time to get it delivered at discount prices. The nutritional value may go down a bit, but I'm hoping this will get me well into winter.
I'm also saving on the processed feed by supplementing with wheat, cracked corn, a little soybean meal, grass clippings, weeds, etc.
The quoted price on the Breeder pellets was $565/ton or $14.13/bag. Last winter I think it was about $13.50/bag and I'm sure it will continue to go higher.
