I’ve spent many hours researching and many more having my “baby”flock test feed; these seems to be the best.. quality and taste! High in protein for their growing needs.

I’ve used this product for over 6 months on the homestead for our quail. Love it! Some bags are more powdery than others, but I just save the powder for the hatchlings. Nothing goes to waste.

Great feed for turkey poults. Doesn’t have a lot of powder and is a good value for the $.
