Can you feed Purina Starter/Grower to meat chickens???

[Willow's Meadow]

I might be getting some meat chickens this summer but I don't know what I would feed them. I feed my egg layers Purina Layer....and when they were babies I fed them Purina Start and Grow. Can I feed the meat birds Purina Start and Grow and then Purina Grower or is their a special feed for meat chickens???

I think they recommend starter for 4 weeks then switch to a meat raiser. That's what we used. The hatchery web site gives very specific instructions in the Cornish-X section.

I give mine Purina Flock Raiser start to finish. Probably not reccomended, but it worked fine.

I've used Start and Grow from start to finish. No problems here...
