Rural King recently added their line of non-GMO feed, RK Naturals, to the shelves but I haven't found any information or reviews on the feed quality.

The immediate downside is that there is no date on the bags.

Does anyone have experience with it?

Why does the 21% starter say it's for chicks up to 3 weeks?
 
Judging by the calcium percentage, on the starter label, it can be that it is ideal to provide slightly less in the beginning then later. Most all purpose feed has a 2% calcium content. Some vary slightly. If you are using that for laying hens, then you need to supplement their calcium needs with oyster shell, or crushed limestone grit as well. The higher protein value may be ideal for quick growth and feathering out. The layer feed does contain between 3 and 4% calcium and 17% protein, Which is the ideal formula for most laying hens.
You may not have any reviews on the feed (non GMO) due to it being relatively new addition.

I have been using the layer for about two months now, and I love it.
I don't know if it was just the feed or the feed and lighting factors together..... But I recently took in some red star hens that were molting (a lot) and within a months time they are now fully feathered and laying.

Does anyone have experience with it?"..................... Hi, I bought my 1st and unfortunately last bag of RK Chick starter, "non-gmo". FIRST OFF, it is NOT non-gmo, it actually has a strong/high content of GMO in it. I react severely to GMO products and avoid them at all costs. I have been feeding this stuff to my chicks and just from breathing in the dust that it produces, I've had a terrible reaction. The chicks love it and seem fine with it but I can't even handle it w/out gloves and breathing protection. I'm VERY disappointed but I have learned my lesson, when it comes to buying "non-gmo" that is not verified or certified. This has been a problem for me, with my own food, I never thought that I'd have to worry about my animal's food. Very disappointed in Rural King and their false claims. No verification or certification = Buyer beware. BTW, just for the sake of saying it, I had this same experience with Smukers Strawberry jam. It was also marked "NON-GMO", WITHOUT verification, I bought it, ate it and it made me severely sick for 3 days. Now I ONLY buy USDA Organic or better yet, NON-GMO PROJECT certified, for me and my pets.
