We do a little of both. We use most of our corn for silage but we'll probably hang on to a little more this year. My friend and neighbor is going to snap a lot of corn this year and I'll probably buy enough from him to fill our corn crib and when that runs out we'll buy more from local farmers. We don't have the capacity to grow enough to feed out all of our chickens and hogs, but we can get it locally on the cob or shelled for the price that the growers get at the elevator. I prefer to buy it shelled, but I can grind ear corn too and formulate the right ration. I've been swelling corn in barrels and letting it sour and feeding it to my hogs with good results. I will probably only use the ground feed for chickens, but I use a lot for that. I don't know how feed prices here compare to other areas, but Southern States has the best price and it is still much more expensive than what I can grind it myself for.
