Guest guest Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Hi, My birds and all my animals for that matter are not fed any soy or any GMO products at all. I buy my corn from a local farmer who planted non GMO corn. He also planted non-GMO soy but I took all the animals off soy due to basically everyone wanting to go soy free. Right now my chickens are not laying very well being it is winter but production is coming up. I have eggs available here and there, hope to get it going steady soon but it is January in Minnesota. Gotta love it! The feeds used are all non GMO: corn, barley, wheat, sunflower seeds, alfalfa, oats. All are grown locally to me by farmers I know (all within 45 minutes of the farm) and mixed and ground custom for me. Not certified organic or anything like that, my farm is doing the naturally grown certification this year. My main farmer is so pissed off at Monsanto he goes out of his way to know what he is planting and using to make sure they don't get any part of it! I will have chicken, quail, duck, and goose eggs available. All are free range too. No antibiotics are used or any other " yucky " stuff. None of the other animals that are raised here are fed soy either and have the same non-GMO diets. I have pretty much everything here: cattle (dairy and beef), pigs, sheep, goats (dairy and meat), poultry including pheasant and chuckers. All the animals are also given extra milk and cheese that didn't turn out like I wanted! Extra kefir, scobies that took off like crazy, kitchen scraps are given to poultry and pigs too.
