OK, it seems to be limited to just one of their mills and a specific lot number of feed.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- St. Louis, Mo., April 16, 2010 -- Purina Mills, LLC, is voluntarily recalling two specific lots of 50-pound bags of Strategy

Professional Formula GX horse feed and one lot of Layena

SunFresh

Recipe Pellet poultry feed. The recall is being implemented due to the discovery of metal fragments in a limited number of bags from one of the Strategy

product lots. At the time the recall was issued, five customer complaints had been received. No animal health issues had been reported.

The products being recalled were manufactured in Nashville, Tennessee, on March 24-25, 2010. They were shipped to retailers and dealers in Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, Missouri and Virginia.

Only the following specific products and lot numbers are involved in the recall:
Formula No. Item No. Description Lot Number
35SS 0066547 Strategy

Professional Formula GX 0MAR24NST1A1
35SS 0066547 Strategy

Professional Formula GX 0MAR24NST2A1
61R3 0056922 Layena

SunFresh

Recipe Pellet 0MAR25NST2A1

The lot number is found on the sewing strip of each bag and is interpreted as follows:
0=Year / MAR=Month / 24=Day of Month / NST1A1=Plant Code.

Customers with products that do not have the specified lot numbers are not affected by the recall.

Thanks a billion for this post. I am glad it doesnt say Layena Crumbles because I would be messed up.

Dang! Go figure, its my most favorite feed! Their poops are great on this stuff, and I think my chickens are more beautiful than ever! I will check the lot number tomorrow.

Lucky, its warm out now and they're hardly touching the feed again, got their gullets so full of yard stuff they're stuffed by bedtime............

Thanks for posting! We use the stuff and are glad that CA isn't listed there.

Oh No, I just saw this. I'm taking a flash light out to the coop to check the bag right now.
Thanks so much for letting all of us know.
