10 Weeks Old - Do They Still Need Chick Starter?

[BekkiH]

My chicks are 10 weeks old now - hardly chicks, anymore!

My bag of chick starter is getting low, so it's time to restock. But it dawned on me that they may be ready for something else by now.

Any recommendations? Think they're old enough for a different feed? Can I switch right away, or should it be gradual?

Not sure if it matters, but they do free range during the day.

Chick starter is fine as well as any "grower" chick feed.
Once they start laying eggs, you can then switch over to a layer feed.
