How large are Kalmbach Flock Maker Pellets?

Can bantams or young pullets manage them? More specifically, I'm curious how they compare to the Nutrena All Flock pellets, which are considered "mini".

Thank you!

They are bigger than the Nutrena All Flock pellets and my chickens would not eat them. So I bought them the crumble but my chickens might just be picky and just use to crumble but they will eat the Nutrena all flock pellets

You are welcome! I was kinda shocked by the size of the pellets compared to the Nutrena

Mine have been eating them since they were 3 and a half weeks old, depends on the bird but a chick absolutely can manage them

Frost, why?? You're contradicting the previous poster and now I have to order a 50lb bag "just to make sure"!

Here's what I did to get them to eat them, I mixed a few in with their crumbles and by doing that someone will get curious and try one and then they'll realize it's food. Once I saw one day they ate the whole mixture, pellets and all I switched over to the pellets entirely

I'll also get some pictures of the pellets when I get home if I remember

Thank you. This would actually be super helpful. No idea what to use as a frame of reference. Do you have tiny baby hands like me?

I do not, I wear large gloves, I'll think of something to use as a reference
