Blue Seal Feeds, Inc. is recalling 238 bags of Blue Seal brand Chick Starter-AM Crumbles (Medicated) because the active medication, Amprolium, is subpotent. The product was found to contain only 76.8% of the labeled medication amount, falling below the required 80% to 120% potency range. This recall affects both 25 lb. and 50 lb. bags distributed to dealers in Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Because this is a medicated feed, consumers should contact a veterinarian or the manufacturer for guidance regarding the effectiveness of the product for their poultry.
The lower-than-required levels of Amprolium may result in the product being less effective at preventing or treating coccidiosis in young chicks, which could lead to illness or health complications in the birds.
