Kalmbach Feeds All Natural 5-Grain Premium Scratch Chicken Feed, 50-lb bag

My chickens liked this scratch just fine but last month I found weevils in it and hard to discard all of the remaining scratch. I don't think it came from my house because it was in a closet separate from my kitchen and it's the only item in the house in which I've seen weevils. Makes me think it came already infested. Probably won't order again. : (

I've been ordering this and never had an issue until now. I keep feed stored in it's bag until ready for use and then it is put in a metal container and always kept in a climate controlled room. I keep cans cleaned and never top off new feed onto old. When I dumped the bag, I noticed it was awfully powdery but didn't give it much thought. I only feed this as a treat each day. A week or so into feeding, I started to notice grain weevils. Knowing chickens will eat bugs, I wasn't too concerned until they were breeding and it became infested with the weevils. I'm at the bottom of my hay cubes which are also stored in a metal container and now there are a few weevils in it. I bagged up the scratch I've been ordering this and never had an issue until now.

I bagged up the scratch and threw the rest away to keep them from getting into my main container of chicken feed. I don't blame Chewy at all. I tried to post photos but it says "photo size too large." Normally I would recommend this scratch grain but now I'd be a bit hesitant. I'm going to assume I got a bottom of a mill bag." … more

The chooks love this and there is far less dust than other scratch grains I have used. Highly recommend

Excellent mix of grains. We feed our wild turkeys, doves, quail, untold numbers of various birds ranging from thrashers to mountain blue birds, even a racing pigeon who has adopted us here in the mountains. All of them are very happy!

My chickens really enjoy this food and you are not stuck with a bag full of mainly whole corn kernels. And my goose would eat the whole bag if I left her! Recommended for sure!

Upon depositing the unopened 50lb bag of scratch on the ground next to the Henhouse, the Ladies went crazy with excitement! Bawking and cackling and feathers flying with excitement, they burst out of their run into the yard and surrounded me like excited yet rather unintelligent vultures. As I opened the bag, the Americauna, Gin, flew up into my hands and shoved her fluffy-cheeked face into the bag. After wrestling her out, I scattered the scratch amongst the Ladies and they immediately went to pecking and scratching and enjoying the spoils of their attack on the CrazyChickenLady. They would definitely recommend this product.

I’ve went though a few brands of scratch. Many are missing multiple grains that my flock enjoys. I was leery to try this one due to lack of photo of what it looked like, but was more than pleased with the mixture and quality of this product. My spoiled little flock Loves it. Highly recommended. I’m including 2 photos, the close up clearly shows the product.

A while back I ran out of scratch for a couple days. Both days when I tossed out food pellets for them instead of scratch, two of my chickens ran back over trying to find where I was 'hiding' the scratch.

A happy life.This is so much better for them than plain corn, and they love it. These little girls are still on Starter, but they'll join the grown ups soon enough.
