Nonsoy no corn is awesome but...

We have purchased this feed a number of times from new hatchlings to layer stage. The ingredients are awesome. The feed stinks, even in a sealed bag. The crumble

We have purchased this feed a number of times from new hatchlings to layer stage. The ingredients are awesome. The feed stinks, even in a sealed bag. The crumble is so fine it's almost powder and we've had to make it a mash or ferment of it. Also, I was wondering how healthy our flock was because their poops were always looking like cecal poops. So I purchased a bag of another organic brand at our local feed store to experiment, then the poops became regular bird looking poops! I don't think we'll purchase this brand again based on the crumb/powder, stench (also means their poop stinks more), and awful looking poo

Love the ingredients, but it's not crumble.

I would love to give this feed 5 stars, but it isn't actually crumble. Instead, it resembles fine, sandy soil. Unless you ferment, most of the feed is wasted.

Not crumbles, it’s powder.

I was disappointed in the consistency of this feed. It was powder and not a crumble.

I so wanted to feed our meat chicks something organic with no soy and no corn - I thought this was it. But it was dark brown / black (not like the picture) - gave it to them anyway and they have had constant diarrhea - it’s been 2 weeks and it won’t stop - we finally trashed this and gave them regular chick food before it killed them. Wish this could of worked but it def didn’t.

Chickens love it

Used it to make a high protein mash for the flock during the molt, fed a bowl of it daily- they clearly look forward to it and I feel good about giving them a well

Used it to make a high protein mash for the flock during the molt, fed a bowl of it daily- they clearly look forward to it and I feel good about giving them a well balanced high-protein feed rather than just high protein treats.
