Oh, great. I'm going to have to check my batches when I home. Thanks for the heads up.
God is my redeemer and it is through Him I have found eternal happiness. I am grateful, I am blessed, and I am truly loved. I wish all this and more for all members of our finch forum family. May you all be blessed and highly favored. <3

It's only certain batches, the website tells you the serial numbers.

Unfortunetly my bag is one of the batches but I only sprinkeled some on the eggfood and my chicks seem ok so I wont worry to bad. My manager came flying into grooming today to ask me if I had purchased any and I told her yes so she gave me the email from corporate. We took all off the shelf today. Would be my luck..... :lol:

EDIT
After studying the bag better mine is ok. my best by date is 08sept12 so it appears ok but I will still throw it out and use a different brand all together..... :D
