Q: Where is the feed made and where are the ingredients sourced from?

There are a few vitamins used in our formulas not available to purchase in the US and are sourced outside; the vitamins are purchased from a US company that certifies/verifies their purity and safety before they are sent to our plant for use. All proteins, fats and carbohydrates are sourced from North America.a year agoHelpful?

a year ago- A: Thank you for your inquiry. Niacin level in NatureWise Starter Grower Chick feed is not a label guarantee, it averages 42 ppm. Niacin requirements for ducks varies depending on age and breed.a year agoHelpful?
Q: Can I feed this to my everday laying hens? I can only find a 16% protein feed but am looking for a 18%
a year ago- A: Thank you for your inquiry. Chick Starter feeds are higher in protein, but lower in calcium/phosphorus levels which are beneficial for egg quality in layers. There is an 18% protein option with NatureWise Harvest Blend, formulated for adult laying hens - https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/nutrena-naturewise-harvest-blend-egg-layer-textured-feeda year agoHelpful?
Q: Can I feed this to non-vaccinated chicks?
a year ago- A: Thank you for your inquiry. NatureWise 18% Starter/Grower can be fed to unvaccinated chicks; for coccidiosis prevention there is a medicated version available https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/nutrena-naturewise-chick-starter-grower-medicated-91582-a7a year agoHelpful?
Q: In response to my last question, you suggested layer crumble for non-laying chickens. Doesn't the extra calcium in layer feed strain the kidneys of non-laying chickens?
a year ago- A: Higher calcium layer feed could be an issue for roosters if fed long term; for hens that are in a rest period (weather, molt) layer feed should be OK; NatureWise Starter Grower Crumble has lower calcium levels so it can be a good option for your particular situation and your flock prefers a crumble.a year agoHelpful?
Q: Your all flock feed is pelleted, and my non-laying chickens will not eat pelleted feed. I will ask again, is this feed safe for adult, non-laying chickens? (This is a "yes" or "no" question.)
a year ago- A: Yes - with the suggestion of a lower protein option in crumble https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/nutrena-naturewise-layer-16-crumbles-50-lba year agoHelpful?
Q: Is this feed nutritionally safe for non-laying hens (e.g., during winter months) and roosters?
a year ago- A: Thank you for your inquiry. For mixed flocks including layers and roosters NatureWise All Flock is the recommended feed - https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/nutrena-naturewise-all-flock-pellet-40-lb-bag - when hens return to laying, NatureWise Layer Crumble would be a good choice https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/nutrena-naturewise-layer-16-crumbles-50-lba year agoHelpful?
