After 4 years of using laying crumbles I changed to laying pellets of the exact same brand. They took awhile before they wanted to eat them real good and DID quit laying for about 4 days but...they now eat the pellets out of my automatic feeder but seem to eat it real slow. ALSO they still spill a good bit on the ground. The feeder is empty now and I just assumed they would scarf up the remaining feed they knocked to the ground but...it has been 3 days now and they don't look like they are eating anything . All they have is what's on the ground. Its not wet or moldy. LORD knows we have not had any rain here in Deep east Texas. What's up with this ?? I guess I can go back to buying crumbles but you would think if they were hungry enough they would eat the feed on the ground!! After all...they are chickens!!
