I have 11 chicks, age range from 2 weeks to 6 weeks. They have been on Medicated Chick Start from IFA, Local Feed Store. But I went and grabbed some 12 lb feeders the other day for the coop, and was wondering what was actually the best chick start to have them on. They had a few different brands, and do I need to get them grit and oyster shell? They had it with all the feed. I just need to pick up some more this week, since I'm down to about 1/4 bag, I can't believe how much they are going through now since they are getting bigger. Just didn't know if the feed store brand is okay or if I should pickup another brand. Usually I research food, I'm huge on dog food research, but I rescued the first set and was in panic mode to get everything. Literally got them, ran to the feed store and just bought what the girl at the counter gave me for them to hurry home to get them warm. I wasn't ever planning on having chickens, and now I have 11. Go figure.
Thanks
