Protein prices?

Would some of you let me know what you've been paying for deer protein? I've been buying Producers Choice 20% for about $12.50 per bag by the ton.

Would you let me know if/where protein can be bought at a better price?

I bought 15 bags of 16% this morning for $9.90/bag at L/E Feeds in George West. I think the 20% was $10.75 more or less per bag. Ton price is a bit less.

Are they giving you a discount per ton?

Thanks stx that's the kind of info I need!

Navasot that's exactly why I'm asking this question. I was under the impression this was supposed to be a discounted price but it sure seems high to me.

I,d really like some more responses!

I purchase mine at Lyssy & Eckel Feed in Poth,Tx. It is $10.65 per 50# (20% protein) Also purchased at Allied Feeds in San Antonio for $9.40 (20%)50 pound bag.

If I remember correctly, last time I bought protein, it was 9.75 for 16% and 10.75 for 20% per #50 bag. No discount for buying by the ton.

Are you picking up the feed yourself, or having it delivered? We have ours delivered in bulk which is about $400/ton, $.20/lb. That's 20%. If you're buying bagged, by the ton and having it delivered and unloaded by the supplier, then it's going to be a bit higher. We also use L&E out of George West for our corn and protein in bulk.

We purchase in bulk from Palmer Feed in San Angelo for .19 per pound and we use their blower trailer for no charge.

The one I use to deal with in bulk would do discounts if contracted an amount at the front of the year

Last week Lyssy&Eckel in Poth 20% 50# $10.10 per bag.

Based on the responses I'm assuming your down south. That said I got 20% from FMC in Graham for 11.00/50lb. That's down .50 since earlier this year. Their corn is ridiculous though at 8.00/50.

I pay $20/100 pounds at West Bear Creek Feed Store in Junction. That's bulk price for ACCO 20% I believe. They deliver and fill my feeders with their trailer for $60 per delivery total. Can't beat that since I'm 400 miles away from my place.

Give Fehners Feed in Gonzales, TX a try. I buy it in bulk delivered to out feeders in the field.
$318 bulk is what I paid this week and we ordered 7000 lbs - 20%.
I believe for bag price it's $8.40 a bag or something like that.
I have some friends in Ft.McKavet that order feed from Fehner and they told me yesterday they were in Kerrville delivering feed a few days. This was for some place that raises doves I think.

$9.50/ 50lb - 20%
