You can find the bagging date in our lot number down the side of our bag tags. The number starts with a P followed by the year, month and day. Example: P20230217-00765 was bagged on February 17^th of 2023. We recommend feed be sold by our dealers within 3 months of bagging and fed out within 6 months. Some feeds with higher levels of molasses may spoil sooner.

All feed products manufactured by Ritchie-Smith Feeds are stabilized using a blend of organic acids. With no nutritional value and no health risk to animals, they are added to reduce the proliferation of natural organisms that potentially decrease the shelf life of your feed.
