We bought this after being disappointed with other starter feeds that looked like corn dust. This looks and smells great, lilke grape nuts! All our girls love it and the rabbits eat it too.

Won't buy again, going to request refund.

I bought this because I was expecting the chicks and it was available. I figured that the chicks all had diarrhea for the first week from the extra stress from shipping. I was constantly cleaning up pasty butt and this is the worst it has ever been. Nearing the end of the bag, I purchased another bag of starter from my local feed store and within a day the diarrhea cleared up! There is a huge difference between the quality of the feed from my local feed store vs the Purina which is mostly crushed powder, vs feed store is uniform crumbles (not powder)

It works

It’s a struggle to connect the bottom to the top . You need more hands than you were born with. 2 to hold the water container and 2 to line up the tabs and twist the base on . Other than that it’s great , holds water and no leaks.

Great product

I saw other reviews about this coming out mostly powdered. This was not my experience with this brand. I've purchased multiple bags so far. Our chickens are flourishing, they love the feed and it is actually very little powder; just a bit at the bottom that can't be avoided.
