In time they will eat them. Try throwing some down on the ground like it's scratch. That's what I did. The gobbled it up in no time. After that they ate it out of the feeder.

do you get this feed from the source or from a feed mill who orders it, if you get it from the maker ask them to mill it for you, which will blend the ingredients so your hens can't get so picky. i get a feed make from the local co-op that is my recipe, and I've found the if they mill it to course the girls get picky, only picking out their favorite pieces, if to fine they toss it around spilling it. it took a couple tries between me and the co-op to get it right, now i have no problems
