ROSKAMP: THE ROLLER MIL
FOWL’S FEED SERVICE (717) 548-2488
All of the feed processing done in our recently completed mill is done with a
Roskamp Roller Mill and Ear Com Crusher. We make feed for dairy, hog and com
mercial layer operations.
Our rolled and coarse textured feeds have been well received by our customers.
Comments we frequently hear are:
1. A lot less dust
2. Flows much better in our bins & feeders.
3. Works very well in our computer feeders.
4. Butterfat has increased .2% or more.
5. Feed conversion is just as good or better.
6. Feed is very uniform and consistent
7. Very little if any separation.
We are very pleased with the high capacity and low horsepower requirements of the
equipment.
