Herding cats
The second bit on my post wasn’t directed at you. giving me the process was helpful!I was just giving you process for figuring out protein percentages. I was using the cat food because that's what was recommended by others and was using those percentages to calculate % for you. Me not knowing all nutritional values of the cat feed I myself can't give you a recommendation of how much to add. I usually only mixed other Poultry/Game bird feeds to get desired targeted values but that doesn't seem to be an option for you. Hopefully others can answer what other alternatives you may have for boosting your protein% and keep the nutritional value for your Quail. @007Sean @U_Stormcrow may have some better advice on that than myself.
They do give a ingredients list on the website is that not necessarily complete?Not necessarily, both feed may not have other essential vitamins and minerals in the correct ratio to provide optimal nutritional efficiency.
The only way to know, is to have a lab perform an analysis on the feed, (very $$$$) or if you can get a complete ingredient list from the manufacturer.
Thank you everyone for your help so far!
