I would like to start giving my chins supplement. Does anyone have a recipe I can use?

Thanks in advance.
 
Weight gain and/or treat. I read that some people give it every day or 2 -3 times a week. I don't want to buy from someone since I have a lot of chins. It would be easier and cheaper for me to make my own.
 
Ryersons sells 10lbs for 30.00 shipped, its a good tried and true supplement if you reconsider buying from someone.
 
Thanks for letting me know about Ryerson's supplement but with so many chins that will cost a lot of money.
 
I have almost 70 chins and use Ryerson's supplement, have used it for years. 10lbs lasts a long time, though I give it 3x's a week instead of every day. And it's not really that expensive if you consider buying 10lbs of any ingredient, say oats, is not much less.

Keep in mind too, most people who make supplement sell it. They do that to make money. Very few people are going to be willing to give you a recipe for something they earn money from.

Just throwing that out there. :)
 
The grain portion is the cheap part of most good supplements. The vitamin and mineral portion is what drives the price.
 
I have over 100 and I get ryerson's suppliment. at like a tablespoon a day it lasts a long long time.
 
I feed them some a couple times a week when I am being good about it. year round used to once a day..right now it just isn't happening
 
Thanks everyone. I know that no one wants to give out recipes. I did have a recipe earlier this year and lost it.
