My flock is growing up (4 weeks) it's been quiet a few years since I last raised chickens. I will have a couple banty roosters, silkies and other Bantam hens.
What do you recommend feeding them and starting at what age? They're currently on Purina Medicated Chick Starter (monitoring silkies closely, they're doing great).
I saw a video stating roosters get kidney damage from layers feed. I also read that silkies can't eat layers feed now? I've never heard of such things and never had any issues feeding my old flock regular chicken food.
