Highlighted Reviews
"My chickens literally found this bag and opened it on their own and at it all. They love this stuff."
"The way this item is marketed it appears you are getting sunflower seeds, meal worms with some added flax. In actuality what we found was mostly cracked corn and peanuts. The sunflower seeds that are present are nearly ALL huge striped sunflower seeds that are too large for my young but mature chick..."
