    How long can i use medicated chick starter

    Well thank all of you for answering my question and I believe that what I get from this is feed starter for 8 weeks then feed grower until the first egg. Then switch to laying feed when you see that egg.

    How long can i use medicated chick starter

    Hi i'm getting some baby chicks in April and my local Agway said for me to keep them on medicated chick starter for 8 weeks then give them the laying feed. Is this correct or should I do it differently. Thanks in advance
