Seminole Starter/Grower Crumbles Medicated. Has anyone tried this feed? Looking for some reviews! Apparently it has 21% protein and vitamins and minerals good for baby chicks.

Hi all, It's been a long time since I've shown chickens and I was wondering if anyone had any info as to what I need to practice with my birds or any knowledge I should acquire. I'm a senior in 4-H and I remembered how much I loved showing when I was younger. Thanks a ton!! P.S. Will be...
