Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Ridley Block Operations, Inc. has recalled approximately 7,760 pounds of WAT Partridge Grower (AVT133) medicated complete feed. The recall was issued after a customer reported that partridge chicks stopped eating the feed, which was followed by the death of approximately 150 bird chicks from a flock of 1,500. This specific feed was distributed to a single game farm in South Dakota.
