Sounds like a good plan. Although I wish there were a non-medicated starter feed and organic grain chop available in my area. The chicks are 16 days old and are 3/4 thru their first 50# bag of medicated starter. I have one more bag of this in reserve (I was told to give them another bag but I disagree, advice is appreciated). After the starter, 50# of milo chop, 50# of corn chop, and 50# of oyster shell will be on the way in a day or two. I will probably add another 50# of grain to this stock, perhaps soybean meal or a minimally processed feed. Well, now that I get to talking about them I have to go out and triple their brooder size. Fun fun, good luck with your birds btw.
