What are these white round seeds?

Chickens won't eat them. I can see why, they are too big to gulp down

Safflower, no those are the pointy ones. Round ...some sort of dried pea? Can you split them?

Do you have a list if ingredients to choose from? That could help narrow it down a lot.

How big are those seeds? How big are your chickens? If you have bantams or very young chicks then they may not be able to handle larger sizes, but full sized fowl (Orpington, Rocks, Sussex, Australorp, and such) eat rocks the size of peas to use as grit. I've found plum pits (same size as peach pits) in my chickens' gizzards when I butcher them. People would be amazed at what they can swallow and grind up in their gizzard.

That's the downside of feeding them a whole grain type of feed where the parts are not ground together. They can pick and choose what they want to eat so they don't get as balanced a diet as the label says. That's fine if it is fed as a treat, keeping the amount a small part of all that they eat. But if that is a main feed their diet isn't quite as balanced as you might assume. They might eat them if you crack them.

To me, it is most likely they are not eating them because they do not want to, not because they can't.

Split, they have the color of a popcorn seed

Don't remember what the scratch was but some of those were in it and listed as "Canadian Peas" in the ingredients. I see them in various scratch mixes.

That's what I found too...just another "food" that my girls don't like. It's in my layer feed from Star Milling Co

Yellow peas exist. Might be a variety of those.
