thinking i might slim my flock down....but keep ewe lambs...keep/kill these depending on price jan....throw in beltex tup in jan if feed situation better than thought:scratchhead:

last yr my 10 ac of stewardship low input barley did 17t....this yr 3t:(

home mixing is ok if you can get cheap protein...i was buying mvf multimix 30% pellets to mix at circa £390t....mixing it 2-1 for fattening ,3-1 for ewes...barley/pellets... cost sort £160-£180t

home mixing not going to much of a cheaper option TBH

currently supposedly using midland feeds mixed nuts 18%....first bag they sent was cereal blend:banghead:....second bag was excellent....third bag has to much dust:banghead:...£230t delivered:scratchhead:
