I figured it might be the food. Now what to do with 39.83 lbs of useless fish food?

Here's the website as listed on the bag: www.SouthFreshFeeds.com. I can't find anything on their website that tells me they use anything but the finest ingredients. ;-)

The geese loved the TSC brand stuff I had on hand after buying the good feed. Take it to a local park and see if the geese/ducks there will eat it, then chalk it up to a relatively inexpensive bit of life experience!
