Nutrena NatureWise Chicken Feed: A Farmer's Review

As winter begins to loosen its grip in the northwest, the faint sounds of springs are steadily increasing at all North 40 Outfitters locations. Spring sounds indoors? Yes, spring arrives with the welcoming sounds of baby chicks as we get them settled into their temporary homes.

Here's the selection of Nutrena NatureWise feeds we carry online.

The peep, peep, peeps will gradually increase over the next few weeks as we reach the peak of Chick Days intermingled with laughter from kids and adults alike. It's a great way to welcome the new growing season, and one that we strive to work hard at, keeping our feathered friends at their best health so they can ultimately make it home to be successful egg layers and meat birds.

Chickens have always been part of our culture for as long as I can remember (which is about 20 years). Taking care of chicks in the morning at N40 is very similar to taking care of animals growing up. As farm kids, we just naturally develop a care for our flocks.

The benefits of raising your own meat birds and egg layers has increased the demand for chickens. What you feed your chickens will make a difference on their success as meat or egg producers.

Nutrena NatureWise chicken feed has been helping people in the Northwest raise healthy chicks while in our care. The best benefit of raising your own chickens is having meat and eggs available for consumption that has been fed all natural ingredients without added hormones or antibiotics.

Nutrena NatureWise delivers quality by understanding the importance of natural ingredients, good digestion, flock health and egg quality in all chicken life stages.

Several years ago during our Ponderay grand-opening, long time Mead customer Mike Haggerty of Triple H Farms discussed the benefits of switching to NatureWise with our Nutrena Feeds representative.

Mike Haggerty: A Farmer's Review of Nutrena Chicken Feed

Mike originally started his flock with 40 chickens, and now has almost over 300 chickens! He had tried several feeds in the past, but just wasn't getting the production value he knew his could. Mike has seen a difference in the overall health of his chickens and eggs. His customers appreciate the bright yolks that are produced year around.

His customers are happy and his hens are happy! Check out Mike's "Tested by Locals" video and see what 300 happy hens have to cluck about. Nutrena NatureWise Natural poultry feed is currently available in all our North 40 Outfitters locations with recipes available in:
