Do you have catalogs with your products?
David — No, we only sell directly through our website. But if you poke around, you’ll be able to see all of our products pretty quickly.
Do you have suggestions for where to by the various ingredients in the feed recipes?
Karen — Most chicken feed ingredients are easy to find in 50 pound bags at your local feed (farm supply) store. If you want to add in Fertrell’s Nutribalancer or something else specific like that, though, you might want to look online.
