Guest Paulo Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 I've been using a four seasons mix as my base breeding mix I add some tic beans to it and the birds are looking good on it at the minute. I get it from a friend who gets it from knoxy to sell ion but it comes from that S Bird Farm at Hartlepool. Its a good clean corn. Gonna still get the geryy plus and that to race with but gonn ause this as my build up mix for the channel
Guest j.bamling Posted March 17, 2010 Report Posted March 17, 2010 JIMMY MATE ALL CORNS COME FROM FARMS GET IT AFTER ITS BEEN IN THEC DRYER NO BETTER I CAN ASSURE YOU I KNOW A FEW GUYS FLY OUT THEIR SKINSD IN THE UNC YOU GUESSED IT STRAIGHTS OFF THE FARMS The thing is Alan The best quality grains get bought up by the big companys so all the top class goes to them before the likes of me and you get a chance of it, it goes in one big job lot and we get 2nd best I know that with the wheat from my local farm the best goes for milling wheat and everybody else gets 2nd best As for lads in the UNC flying well on it i have no doubt they are but they might be getting hold of better farm corn then me, i am just saying what i do & the farm or cheaper corn what i have tried over the backend is not good enough (or i daren't take the risk) to use on the racers P.S. All the top fanciers what i have been too lately all use branded corns so swings & roundabouts i suppose its whatever makes you happy at the end of the day mate ;D I have also seen the corn coming down on the barges ,the Top companys like Natural were knocking it back after inspecting it, it wasn't good enough for them while the little companys were buying it which also makes you think !!! cheap doesn't always mean Good :-/
BLACK W F Posted March 17, 2010 Report Posted March 17, 2010 YES DO AGREE WITH YOU UP TO A POINT jIMMY BUT THE DIFFERENCE IS WHEN THE FARMERS ARE FRIENDS YOU ALWAYS GET THE BEST ;)

dwh Posted March 20, 2010 Report Posted March 20, 2010 Natural corn is some of the best in the business most major companies will buy there grains from the same merchants its the processing,cleaning.and mixing that makes the differenceJMO
agricrop Posted March 20, 2010 Report Posted March 20, 2010 There are good farms and bad farms, the best thing you can do is see how the grain is stored. I think seald bulk bags are the best. Grain dryers take a large amount of impurities out of the corn plus some farmers have there own cleaners. I've been round a big BOCM mill, plenty or rats there. They call them meercats! I recon some farms have cleaner corn.
