I'm getting four new chicks this weekend, and I'm going to be feeding them chick starter. I already have three adult chickens (they are 4 years old), who get layer feed. The last time I had chicks was 4 years ago, and I can't remember when I switched from chick starter to layer feed! Do I switch when they start laying eggs? Or when they get to a certain age?
Also, these chicks are going to grow up in the coop (they are being raised by my broody hen), so when they get older, how do I make sure the chicks are eating the right feed?
Thanks!
