    Kalmbach Flock Maker crumble size vs Purina All Flock crumbles

    Thank you for the picture and egg info. That’s what I was hoping for. Wanted to attach a pix of the Purina I have but don’t see how to attach it? Not sure if a faulty bag or the norm, but they are eating very little of it. I think I’ll return it and order the Kalmbach.

    Kalmbach Flock Maker crumble size vs Purina All Flock crumbles

    I feed Kalmbach Flock maker pellets, but recently purchased Purina All Flock crumbles for the new chicks in lieu of Kalmbach crumbles. Purina is very fine and almost a powder. Wondering if anyone has compared crumble size, and/or might have a picture to share of the Kalmbach crumble? Since...

    Layer feed or all flocks for non-mixed flock?

    Just wanted to share my experience with both feeds in question. While I do realize there could be many variables involved (calcium, weather, time of year etc) with my issues, my results in those issues have been drastically reduced. Upon the recommendations of BYC, I just switched to Kalmbach...

    Purina Farm to Flock feed?

    Thinking to try this new feed. Also contemplated Nutrena Nature Wise Harvest Blend. Wondering if all the ingredients will make them pick out what they like only, and spoil them to not eat the pellets? Or is it good to have the variety of ingredients? They are currently eating layer pellets...

    Can Broody hen raise chicks?

    Thank you, I’m looking to add day old chicks. They will be in a separate pen from old flock, at least until juveniles. I think I’m being overly sensitive regarding Mereks. I will have them vaccinated.

    Can Broody hen raise chicks?

    I’m considering adding new Merek vaccinated chicks (non broody) to my nonMerek vaccinated flock. I want to let their future eggs hatch utilizing my existing broody hens. Is there any danger of diseases etc being passed from a healthy hen to chicks that I should be concerned with? Merek...

    Broken beak

    I received 2 buff Orpingtons with broken top beaks around 6 weeks ago. They have no problem eating though a little hard to pick up treats. I do have feed in a bucket for them, but I also see them eating out of the feeder. I’m trying to cut the bottom beaks back a little. Not sure how long...

    Yes both bags, same mill date March 29. I store it in the original bag in closed metal trash cans. The big pieces sunk to bottom, little pieces throughout. Picture was of the new bag just opened with small one on top. Dug through bag and found larger also. Should I give them something in case it...

    Is it clumps of mold? They are hard like a rock.

    I found these in my chicken feed. Nutrena Nature Wise Hearty Hen. I don’t recall ever seeing anything like it. Bag was mostly finished when I found them. I got both bags from the same place. I haven’t received contact back from Nutrena yet. I’m planning to take the freshly opened 2nd bag. Not...
