Field peas, yay! While some of us are blessed to live where peas like this are abundant, I'm learning about how many of you are not able to affordably source them in your area. To help bridge that gap, I am delighted to offer 14# and 25# sizes.
These are not certified organic, but contact me and let me know if you want me to add those at a higher price.
Non organic, non GMO field peas are sourced from our local supplier, Kaniksu Feeds, with a guaranteed analysis of:
Crude Protein (min) 22.0%
Crude Fat (min) 2.04%
Crude Fiber (max) 5.20%
Please note: supplies vary so you may see more green or yellow peas, or all one color. I buy these in larger quantities and re-bag them to a size that will fit in a flat rate box to make it affordable to ship anywhere in the US. Because this is an agricultural product, there may be a small number of inclusions, such as oat hulls. I have no concerns using these exact peas to feed my dairy herd.
Field peas make up one of the three components to my homemade feed ration, which consists of whole oats, whole barley and peas. You can learn more about the nutritional profile by going to Feedipedia, an excellent resource for anyone wanting to learn the nuts and bolts of the feeds they're feeding.
We haven't had the mineral buffet long but so far we are very impressed! We were not convinced that a bulk mineral was good enough for our two boys. They have been eating a few of the minerals and we are so happy they can just get what they need. It was super easy to order and shipping was in a timely manner. Thanks so much for for having options for even the smallest herd!
Our goats are devouring it. It's so hard to decide what minerals each goat needs, some are make, some female, some expecting, some young. This takes the guess work out of it. It was a lot of work to set up but we believe it will be well worth it!
I have had the mineral buffet for the last 6 months. I have noticed a HUGE change in my herd of 5 health. There costs are shiny, smooth and soft. They have been more playful and outgoing. During this years kidding season none of the goats at any mineral deficiency. In years past they have had copper and zinc deficiencies after kidding. Now we are narrowing done to acouple mineral that they need BC vitamin, selenium, and potassium.
Thanks again!
Thankful for Little Avalon Farms and their hard work to provide a more affordable way to offer our goats an important first step in keeping them happy and healthy by providing minerals in a buffet form. This allows them to choose what they need, which varies at times according to feed and forage available. Gone are the days of imbalance.
So happy I made this decision for my herd. So much better that they can choose only what they need. They get so excited when I refill it! And such a quick turnaround time from when I order to when I receive them!
I have been buying individual minerals to replace the one's my goats have used up. My orders have shipped out fast. I have been very pleased. Thank you much. Teresa
As soon as we put the mineral feeder out, the goats were over checking things out. It’s been interesting to see what they gravitate towards. We added Icelandic Kelp to the buffet as well which has been a big hit too!
These two doelings have been browsing their buffet for 5 of the 7 months they have been on the planet! I am very happy with their coats, eyes, hoofs and appetite. Their fecals had no worm eggs and few cocci this week. I did treat once with valbendezole two months ago for barberpole. They consume more of some minerals than others, but it appears to be correct judging from their overall condition.
