"I usually get my feed from a co-op, but I missed my order recently. So I went to Chewy to fill the gap until I could order again. My picky birds seemed to enjoy it quite a bit! They free range all day and get regular treats and scratch feed, (besides the feed) so they feel they have space to snub ..."

— Mary

"I have seramas. They can't eat the peas, and corn because the pieces are too large. Half the food goes to waste unless I want to put food for 40 chickens in my 4 cup food processor."

Bottom Line

This is a top-tier choice for owners of laying hens and ducks looking for a high-quality, soy-free feed that their birds will love.
