southwest_colonel Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Hello all. I was wondering if anyone has any experience of feeding brewers' grain to pheasants/partridge (or knows of any study by GWCT or similar into such practices)? I'm having decidedly little luck with Google, and can't get to a decent library for a couple of weeks... I know it's common amongst many livestock feeding regimes due to palatability, low cost and high protein/fibre, but was wondering how game-birds would get on with it - obviously not as the main feed, but to help spread the wheat and maize a bit further. Interested in hearing your thoughts and/or experiences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aga man Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Can't speak for pheasants but my chickens won't touch them! Tried some from the local dairy farm but the hens wasn't interested. The farmers tells me they are not as cheap as they once were either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
