What is cracked corn?

Cracked corn is a type of feed for livestock and poultry. It is made by cracking whole corn kernels into smaller pieces. The kernels are cracked using a roller mill or hammer mill.

Cracked corn is a popular feed option for birds like chickens and ducks because it is easy to digest and provides energy and nutrients. It is also used as feed for cows, pigs, and other livestock animals.

Cracked corn can be used as a standalone feed or mixed with other grains and supplements to create a balanced diet for animals. It can be fed dry or mixed with water to create a mash.

One drawback of cracked corn is that it is high in carbohydrates and low in protein. Therefore, it should be supplemented with other feeds to ensure animals have a balanced diet. Additionally, cracked corn should be stored properly to prevent it from spoiling.
