Poll: do you feed pellets or crumble?

[Bird_Lover_17]

I feed my birds Dumor

You really need to add an option for whole grain. That's what I feed.

Heh your vote only allows for 1 option, so I can't vote.

I technically feed all 3.

I feed Scratch & Peck Grower to all my flock since I have roosters with most of the hens and don't want to give them too much calcium. It's corn free and soy free and organic. I think having the grains whole keeps the food value better than when they are crushed. And I think that the chickens have the best idea of what they should eat and the whole grains let them pick and choose. They do waste a little bit onto the ground, but almost everything gets eaten. Whole grains that don't get eaten but are pushed into the dirt will sprout during most of the year and the resulting grass gets eaten by the chickens.
I was using New Country Organics Grower for a while but I had a problem hatch and lost some chicks. I'm not sure it was the difference in the feed, but I went back to Scratch & peck and the flock seems healthier to me although I won't know for sure until I hatch some chicks next Spring.

Thank you for your explanation
