I accidently fed my chickens moldy feed today, I wasn't very moldy, and it was dark when I fed them last night so I never noticed it, will it make them sick from just a day? Is their not enough that I need to worry about it? And how do I dispose of it, I don't like the idea of wasting a full bag of chicken feed but if my flock will get sick I don't want to feed it to them, mold looks less thick the deeper down I go.

Edit: they are the little white pieces.

Mold is black. Fungus is white and looks fuzzy.
I'm on my phone with a 5 inch screen. I don't see fuzz.
Could you take a photo of the ingredient label.
It looks OK on my phone, BUT if you see fuzz, toss the feed in the trash.
I'm going to bed, so won't respond till tomorrow. GC

Did it look anything like that? And don't worry about the health affects part of the chart, since were talking about chickens;) Good luck, I hope it isn't mold!
