Can roosters eat this?

Answer by ChewyAug 26, 2025
While roosters can eat layer feed without immediate harm, it's not recommended for their long-term health. Layer feed is formulated with high levels of calcium to support egg production in hens. Since roosters don’t lay eggs, they don’t need this extra calcium—and over time, excessive calcium intake can lead to kidney damage and other health issues in male birds. Instead, it's best to provide roosters with an all-flock or grower feed that offers balanced nutrition without the elevated calcium levels. These alternatives support their overall health and longevity without the risks associated with layer feed

I really can’t understand the bad reviews. I was feeding my chickens Grubbly farms which I believe to be top notch feed. I did a side by side comparison where I had 1 feeder of each and they ate up all the Bar Ale food before the Grubbly and it’s less than 1/2 the price, so win win for all around. I’m very satisfied.

smaller bag

This one should be 5olb. bag and should also not be crumbled, birds seem to like this form less that in regular grain form. No soy or corn is a plus as we have restricted

This one should be 5olb. bag and should also not be crumbled, birds seem to like this form less that in regular grain form. No soy or corn is a plus as we have restricted diets now.

Fantastic chicken food without corn

After looking for a chicken food that does not contain corn, I have been very happy with this product!

Everybody wants to eat it!

I don't know if my flock is just super picky, or what, but they will eat this food! They don't like a lot of other foods I've tried- trying to stay away from soy

I don't know if my flock is just super picky, or what, but they will eat this food! They don't like a lot of other foods I've tried- trying to stay away from soy and too much corn (they get some as a treat from time to time) so this fits that bill as well! My girls will not eat pellets of any brand that I have tried (including this one) but they do love these crumbles!

No corn....

Chickens eat it very well. Trying to avoid any kind of "cracked corn feed" in summer months when the girls are already struggling with the heat. The corn free feed

Chickens eat it very well. Trying to avoid any kind of "cracked corn feed" in summer months when the girls are already struggling with the heat. The corn free feed does not raise their body temperature, I switched them from feed mill food to the Bar Ale without issues, they all like it and it didn't slow down the egg laying. Good!

Quality chicken feed

Quality product for size of the bag and purchase price. We like to mix products for a well rounded feed for our girls. Will continue to buy.

Happy Hens

I a was thrilled to see Chewy carrying Bar Ale feed. I prefer a soy & corn free feed, this is one I can afford. I have always had to make an out of the way trip

I a was thrilled to see Chewy carrying Bar Ale feed. I prefer a soy & corn free feed, this is one I can afford. I have always had to make an out of the way trip to a feed store to purchase, having it delivered to my door is so convenient. High quality ingredients for happy healthy hens & great eggs. I read the reviews where the chickens refused to eat it. I would like to know if those people slowly introduced this feed by mixing a little bit in their original feed and slowly increasing? If you research changing feeds, a slow introduction of blending with the old feed is always advised.
