Like others here in the E Texas area, George1 and Pat, I was picking up Cargill fish food from Overtons. It was a 7 hr round trip for me. Walt (Overtons) mentioned they could get it delivered to me direct. So I tried a 20 sk delivery. Boy OH Boy, did those 20 sks go fast !! 3 Texas feeders will throw out some feed ! And the CNBG will eat it as fast as it hits the water. So, I placed a full pallet order (50 sks) and it arrived yesterday, (1 day after I placed the order) and delivered it right to the barn. The only problem is I have back problems and so I am waiting for my grandson to help stack it in the barn.
Cargill 1/8" Triton, A blue colored 50lb sk.
Crude protein Min. 45%
Crude fat Min. 12%
Crude fiber Max. 3.0%Phosphorus Min 0.9%
Feeding directions "it depends" is printed right on the sk, Haha, where have I herd that before?
Concern's? Do not overfeed, overfeeding will result in oxygen depletion of the water. I am not sure about this warning on the sk. My Overtons CNBG seam to eat most everything that hits the water and what is not eaten by those fish are eaten by the FHM and crawfish. I have watched the big crawfish put the feed in their mouth and it looks like I have good crawfish numbers for now, but the CBLMB, recently introduced, should put a hurt on them in the next few months.
So if you might think I am over feeding, I am trying to get my CNBG big fast and reproducing fast so I might get those CBLMB in the double digest ASAP
