Re: [Blackbelly] Koi food
Liz, I know that chickens will eat anything and everything so would probably enjoy the koi food. The reason for my question was the package statement, Not for human consumption. And we eat our chickens, too. Look at the label and tell me if you see any ingredients one should not eat?

Folks got into allot of trouble feeding ruminants animal parts in the past. It probably is illegal also. Think of Mad Cow. I would think it would be ok to feed to chickens, because they eat just about anything. Also, the protein content would be pretty high I would imagine. I really do not think that fish food would be plant based, but mostly animal or fish source. Just some rambling thoughts.
