Which is better and why? I have chickens and turkeys (boys and girls of both) and currently feed Flock Raiser crumbles. The All Flock is available in pellets.
Nutrena Naturewise All Flock vs Purina Flock Raiser

Hi there - a very interesting question, so I googled! Both brands are owned by the same company- Cargill.
From what I read, I really don't see much difference between the two. On a personal note, I use Nutrena feather fixer for my flock. After I started using it I noticed a definite improvement in feather sheen.

I use Purina Flock Raiser, which also comes in pellets. It's 20% protein and it seems to get the hens through the molt faster. Some are even continuing to lay while molting, which didn't happen in previous years when I kept them on layer feed (16% protein).
I haven't used the NatureWise All Flock, but did notice from the label that it has less protein (18%) than the Purina Flock Raiser (20%).

Where do you buy the Flock Raiser in pellets at? I've checked Purinas website and have only seen it offered in crumbles.
I get it at my local feed store (E&L Supply) in Spring Mills, PA. Check with your feed store. If they carry Purina products, it's very likely they can order the pellets for you.
I thought I would update this thread. I think at one time Nutrena Naturewise all flock pellets were 18% protein but I have been buying it since the feed store down the road sold and now they only carry an off brand of feed which don't have it in higher protein and I hate changing feed. Here the Nutrena Naturewise all flock pellets I have been buying are 20%. It does come in 40# bags instead of 50#. I go through a lot of feed. The Purina Flock Raiser 20% protein only comes in crumbles around here. I went to their website and it appears it is also available in pellets too.
I know the feather fixer pellets are 18%.
