read your feed tags. I was feeding walmart brand because I saved a few dollars. I had some issues with dying chickens, one a week. They just got thin lethargic and died. I always read feed tags for all my other critters but had failed to do so with the chicken feed. I figured I should read the walmart feed tag. It was a bag of trash! All by products, not one true ingredient in the bag. Poor protien content and calcium wasnt listed(this was an egg making product).
Switched to Purina and havent had lost a chicken since(6 months ago). The condition of the chickens that survived was vastly improved in just a few weeks, I hadnt even realized how poor they all looked.
I love walmart but at least at mine anyhow the quality of their animal feed is very poor.
