Re: [CHICKENS-101] chick feed

 

Congratulations on having eggs incubating for cream legbars!   As long as our dinosaur chicken birds have an animal and plant based feed (I prefer to not feed GMO) I think they do well on most non GMO and organic feeds (and non organic).

 Medicated feed is a preventative measure and chicks can and do get cocci on medicated feed.  Feeding medicated feed will not clear up a case of cocci and should not be fed while birds are getting cocci med in their water.  Doing both can kill chicks in short measure by damaging their kidneys.

W my chicks still a week and a half away I've been following this conversation... Haven't bought my starter feed yet and now I'm leaning toward NatureWise, which is supposed to boost the immune system w/o medication.  Also like the idea of not putting antibiotics into my compost.
