Gonsalviz Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) I want to make some chicken feed. I live in Kalasin (western side) but it seems no one grows corn around here. Is there some place to buy it, say 30-50 kg bags? Also soya bean coursely ground. The rest I have managed to find. The pellet stuff isn't much liked by the chickens. They do eat it but I think for self preservation rather than liking it. Can't seem to find how to follow this topic with the new format. PM's would be great.

kickstart Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Next province to you is Mahasarakham there is a dairy co-op there them , or a feed supplier near them should provide you with ground maize and ground soya , but I think the maize is sold in 90 kg sacks and soya in 70 ? kg sacks. some dairy farmers like to mix they own feeds ,rather than buying some of the big company pelleted feeds. At this time ground maize is about 9-10 Baht/ kg ,soya ,last time checked was about 22-25 Baht /kg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob13 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) Used to have load and unload pallets of mortar mix. Doubt I could do it these days. Maybe with a handtruck I could. Edited August 4, 2016 by Rob13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
