I have ordered this a few times. First few were fine, last one was moldy. Called and they ordered a replacement, never got called again and it was a glitch in system, woman I spoke to was great and got it fixed right away. Other than that bag, my hens live it don't have any problems.
Did moisture get in to the 50# bag? Quite likely - there were lots of clumps in the feed. Don't have that problem when I buy directly from Blue Seal.
I emplore folks not to buy this. I received this and the first thing I noticed was mold on the inside of the bag. The crumble had a funny smell to it and when I ran my fingers through moldy clumps everywhere. Very disappointed to say the least .
This was the 2nd bag I bought. The 1st bag was clumpy and moldy, I thought maybe just a one off but noooo. This 2nd bag is even worse. I will never buy this brand feed again.
It had a strange smell when I opened the bag not sure if that’s normal. Anyway my chickens are literally not pecking at it.
Both bags have mold present and they smell horrible. I contacted Chewy which probably refunded my money but do not feed this product to your birds. Not happy at all with these moldy bags!
This feed was good for the first few orders, but the last order I got, the food was all clumped up and smelled horrible. My girls would not eat it. Reached out to customer service and they sent a new bag which appeared ok at first but after a few days it also started clumping up and smelling bad. We are switching to a different brand going forward.
Chewy did great resolving, but I had to buy 3 bags before I received feed that didn't have mold. Likely from the supplier, so try a different brand.
I bought three bags and all three bags were full of chunks of mold. Customer service was great though!
I read the review and bought it anyway thinking it was a fluke.It still may be just a bad batch but after getting the first bad review it should have been pulled with further investigation . I’m being sent a replacement and am trying to be optimistic that it will be of much higher quality. Will let y’all know.
