Hi, I was just talking with the Local feed store and she was telling me that the chicks should be taken off medicated starter after a couple weeks. Mine are four weeks now. This concerns me.
Next question is should I put them on a 20 percent multi purpose layer or should I put them on a grower?
Or should I just drop them at this point and go to the 16 percent layer?
This is very confusing as far as switching them off the medicated since I have never raised chicks prior, so nothing to go on.
My concern was putting them on a mash which is primarily dust. I read where some do not like or eat pellets. So what to do.
mash verses pellets?
Grower verses layer?
And what percent 16% or 20%
HELP
