We are buying corn from our local Coop and they are higher than a broom, but they charged me $435 for two ton of corn about 71 bu 6.12 per bu, which figures about 11 cents a pound. Doing your own grain for a few chickens, or any livestock unless you have the equipment to plant, cultivate, harvest, it would very expensive to start to do it.
