I am posting this for a friend.
I would welcome some feedback from other small fiber flock people. I live in a section of Massachusetts that is witnessing small old farms being turned into high priced subdivisions. As a result, the number of feed stores and the products they provide are limited. In fact, most focus on the horse market. Locally, I have a choice of Blue Seal and Agway products. I currently feed my flock of Icelandic sheep and Angora goats Agway Sheep & Goat Pellets (16% protein). Six weeks before lambing, I add soy meal and some cracked corn if it is very cold. I welcome feedback a personal experiences regarding Agway vs. Blue Seal, Pellets vs. Coarse, mixing one's own receipt vs. commercial feeds and cost.
