Scratch and Peck Feeds Whole Grain Starter Mash Chicken and Duck Feed - Corn-Free and Soy-Free - 20.5% Protein, Certified Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified Chicken Food - 50 lbs Bag

Bought a bag of this feed at a local store after having the chicks on a different feed. It didn’t seem like the chicks enjoy it and weren’t eating what we expected them to. Then we saw this Organic, non-gmo, feed and decided to try it. You can see the difference between this food and other brands, you can also smell the difference, this food smells like food, the others don’t even have a scent. Then the proof came when we put it down for the chicks, they seemed to smell it and jumped on the feeder right away and ate like they were starving. I don’t think they liked the other feed, and they seem to love this one. I have since ordered another bag, and will continue them on the next stage food and then on to the “Layer” blend.

My Pink Ladies love this feed. This is what I started them with since chicks. You can see all the grains which I prefer for them. It's my 1st time having chickens, food's a little pricey but less expensive than other organic brands. My ladies have grown so healthy. Their eggs have beautiful dark yolks and taste great! I had switched them to a different organic feed that contained pellets, it was a waste of my money. My girls dont like pellets whatsoever. Once in a while a bag may have extra powder filler, I simply gather it and mix into mash which they love. I don't have any wasting of feed like that. Fermenting is also great. They are happy consumers and I will continue to purchase it.

I would rate this as a "whole" food for chickens. I was impressed when I opened the bag. This is what chicken feed should look like. My chickens look very clean and healthy as a result.

Our 6 month old rooster loves this one.

Feed is fine for my ducks, they seem to really love it, but I find kernels of corn in every bag I get from Scratch & Peck. I’ve purchased Starter mash and Grower mash and both have had whole kernels of corn. It’s not a pea or anything else, either.This company, like many others who make feed in their facility, make both corn products and corn free products. Just know your “corn-free” feed may end up with some unexpected pieces of corn in them. It’s bound to happen and has happened now with every single company I’ve purchased organic feed from.

Two 25 lb. bags come per box. The chickens love this stuff. A bit pricey, and I do hope the cost will come down soon. I honestly can't afford to keep feeding them based on cost alone.

Delivered exactly what I wanted on time,

This food is well worth the money. Great ingredients and the chicks absolutely love it and are thriving!
