Hello! We have an egg-laying hen who ate a bunch of starter crumbles. Wondering if the eggs are safe to eat. I see recommendations to avoid for a couple weeks if the feed was medicated. Is this feed medicated? It doesn't advertise itself as such but we don't know what to look for.
It also says not to feed to chicks over 8 weeks old on the label as well as to not feed it to sheep as the copper content is too high for sheep. Has us a bit worried about the eggs.
If the eggs are fine, a follow up question: is it safe for us to mix this in slowly into their feed until it's gone instead of throwing it away?
Thanks for any advice!!
