Bad bag of food
« on: April 22, 2012, 09:42:16 pm »
Not wanting to cause panic but i fetched 5 bags of massey sow rolls today,as i picked up 1of the bags the top contents felt soggy,i opened it up to find the top 4 inches a soggy mass,i phoned the supplier to advise them of my bag.
Just to add i have used massey feeds for over 12 months without any problems,the 2nd bag i opened was fine maybe got wet in transit but check your feed.

Ditto - I use ECV's sow rolls as a maintainence feed for my "resting" gilts/sows & stud boars.  They only time I had a wee bit of dampness was my own fault - not getting the pallet in straight away & the ground sheet I'd used to cover it had blown off - only the top 5 bags & again through the stitching.

I use ECV and have only ever had a bad batch (last year) with 4 bags that were mouldy when I opened them. I phoned ECV and they gave me 4 free bags on my next load. Top marks to ECV
You gotta ask yourself, 'Do I feel lucky'?
