Is your feed medicated?

No.

Is your feed fermentable?

Yes! Here's a guide. 

Where is the feed made?

100% of grains are farmed and milled in the Midwest using only U.S. grains from local family farms.

Is this feed suitable for ducks, geese, and other waterfowl?

Yes.

Why does my feed vary a little between orders?

All feed is 100% Certified Organic, which means that depending on various factors, it can look a little different each time we mill it. For example, if it's been a particularly wet or dry summer, the field peas may be a different color. This is the nature of milling all organic feed, and is out of our control. We do sell pellet feed if you find you'd rather have uniform feed each time. It is exactly the same ingredients as the whole grain feed - but pelletized.
