I've checked in the bag and there's nothing strange about it. No mildew or mold.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Just Grind It UpI got pellets instead of crumbles and my fancy flock is too good for pellet food lol! Is there anything I can do to entice them to eat these cylindrical hell pellets? The squirrels don't even like it. I've thought about putting it in the food processor but I've got a 4 cup food grinder.. And 50 pounds of "inedible" feed.

Been there done that. Tried grinding, didn't have an appliance could cope with how hard they are so that was a fail.
So two things worked, went and bought some crumble and mixed the two together.
And on a cold morning, pour some hot water over to just moisten, let cool to just warm. Nice warm treat for them.
When they get hungry enough they'll eat pellets.
Pellets waste less feed and end up being more nutritious in the long run because all the additives (vitamins, minerals, amino acids) are added as a powder and bound up in the pellet. In crumbles, those additives end up settling to the bottom as fines and the chickens won't eat them.
Be patient, chickens have no patients.
