To get the best results from Leland Mills feed and to maintain product freshness, we recommend the following storage practices. These guidelines are designed to help you protect your feed from spoilage, moisture, pests, and sun damage.
Use a pallet, shelving, or another clean surface to lift bags off concrete, pavement, dirt, or other ground surfaces.
Moisture is the #1 cause of feed spoilage. Choose a location that stays dry and allows air to circulate freely around the feed.
Store feed in shaded areas, away from windows or open exposure to sun. Prolonged sunlight can degrade feed quality.
Our feed is milled fresh, and we recommend using it within 90 days of delivery to ensure maximum nutritional value.
Ground contact (even on concrete) increases the risk of condensation, pest access, and mold growth.
Avoid basements, sheds, or outdoor areas that collect water or are exposed to groundwater.
Trapped moisture inside airtight containers can cause mold to grow, even in dry climates.
We recommend purchasing only what you can use within 3 months to ensure freshness and reduce waste.
