Great food

I am unhappy the way it’s packaged. Both bags broke. It’s not cheap food either. On top of that, small items were underneath the bags.

Not very happy

My chickens liked it for about 4 days & stopped eating altogether. I’ve had to mix it with grains & scratch & they still pick it out & don’t eat it.

My chickens won’t eat it

I live the product but my chickens refuse to eat it. I’ve tried mixing in some mealworms etc and they will scatter the food and just eat the treats. I’m on day three

I live the product but my chickens refuse to eat it. I’ve tried mixing in some mealworms etc and they will scatter the food and just eat the treats. I’m on day three and the food has not been touched. Going to buy food tonight I know they will eat.

Quality and fast shipping

I found this product once and couldn't find it locally again. I've fed pellets and crumble in the past and the girls make a mess everywhere. This shape is appealing

I found this product once and couldn't find it locally again. I've fed pellets and crumble in the past and the girls make a mess everywhere. This shape is appealing to them, that's just my guess, as they haven't made any messes with it so far. Thank you for having this available!

Chickens will not eat

I’ve tried watering down and serving in normal feeders my chickens went two days without eating because they refused to eat this feed. It looks fine but they refused

My picky chickens

I love the price and I love Dr Pol but my chicken didn’t seem to eat it well maybe because I started them out on crumble feed. I’m going to try and mix it lightly

I love the price and I love Dr Pol but my chicken didn’t seem to eat it well maybe because I started them out on crumble feed. I’m going to try and mix it lightly through their other feed to see if it changes for them.

Was my favorite

Bag looks the same, but contents have changed. The little pearls were perfect. Not crumbles, not pellets. Now they are like half pellets. Not an improvement

No waste, good taste

No dust or waste

Pearls are much less dusty and wasteful than crumble. Good size option for Silkies who have trouble with standard pellets size. As for my girls loving them it’s

Pearls are much less dusty and wasteful than crumble. Good size option for Silkies who have trouble with standard pellets size. As for my girls loving them it’s a “meh”. But they eat them when they’re hungry. No bug or mold in package, good ingredients, decent price.
