What’s Inside

Our chicken feed offers a glimpse of how we formulate and mill a feed…

From the start, Union Point Feeds distinguished itself by selecting quality ingredients, developing nutritious and efficient formulas, and pleasing animals and their caretakers with flavors and forms that reduce waste. Our top-selling feed is for poultry, and the ingredients profile below shows why. Our other feeds and formulas vary by animal, but the emphasis on quality is consistent. You can see the ingredients and nutrition details for all formulas here.
