In a 1999 addendum to "Pastured Poultry Profits" Salatin gives this
recipe:

corn 5000 lb
roasted soybean 3100 lb
oats 1100 lb
feed grade limestone 500 lb
Fertrell Nutri-Balancer 300 lb
Thorvin kelp 55 lb

In other places in the book he says milo or grain sorghum can be
substituted for the corn, or triticale for corn and oats. He also says
the corn can be cracked and some of it ground. He says the oats are best
"crimped" (how the heck does one crimp oats?). And he says one can use
soybean meal instead of roasted soybeans. (Another book says baby chicks
shouldn't have limestone grit, to use another kind of grit to begin
with.) ANYWAY, nowhere in this recipe do I see animal protein???
