I see. You're looking for a layer feed. Any would technically be fine, but feeding as Sally does (above) is a better option. They word it that way on the assumption that you will be switching to layer. The feed is fine for life.

Hi :welcome All flock and layer would be exclusive of each other.

Agreed, it might and it might not. That's why I say a test batch.

@RoyalChick, I have heard some say six months is fine. I believe some feeds put a one year expiration. If you are inclined to trying the freezer, I would recommend a test batch to see if it draws moisture and molds. It all comes down to your judgment.

My goal is to use the feed within three months of mill date (sooner is better). Consider your humidity levels before storing in a freezer.

That would be the mill date. The general concern with the chicken feed is nutrient loss over time more so than it going "bad". Pellets keep better than crumble in this regard as the pellets have less surface area compared to their volume. Likewise whole grains keep better than pellets. I would...

The date style change could be if it was made by or made for. Sometimes a company will contract a smaller mill to make feed for that area and the dating method could be different.

Without any date on tag or the date being fully coded, I'd go with the aforementioned. I've never seen a bag of kalmbach. Safe travels.

One set of numbers does look like it could be 124th day of 23. Is there anything printed on the nutrition tag?

Usually on the bottom bag seal or the nutrition tag.

I agree with this. One will likely not go wrong by choosing the feed that consistently has the best combination of protein, freshness, and price.

I always have to ask for it. 99.8% of the time they do have it - just not on the shelf. I don't know why. Middle of January was the last time I bought it straight off the shelf.
