Details: A hands-on guide for understanding and developing your own pastured poultry feed. What goes into feed and why? How important is grit? What do I do when my birds get sick? All of these questions are answered in "Niche Poultry: Feeding and Management" 5th edition!
The book is a compilation of Jeff’s previous health and nutrition articles, feed rations, case studies, and feeding trials. The emphasis in the book is on maintaining proper nutrition and health as the basis of a profitable flock. In other words, everything starts with what the birds eat and is affected by the producer’s management decisions. This book provides rations for meat production, layers, turkeys, and ducks including some no-soy chicken variations. The book has been expanded to include slow growing poultry and provides rations for standard-bred (heritage) turkeys and chickens. This suite of rations contains the expected variations for starter, grower, developer, and meat production. It also provides rations for breeders in a non-laying time of year.
The good news for people who don’t want to spend a lot of time reading through unnecessary details, this book is just like having a conversation with Jeff.
