can I eat an egg if they stopped medicated starter feed 3 weeks ago?

[Lisa202]

Yesterday I ate my first eggs...and they were delicious!... But then I remembered that they had been eating medicated starter feed up until Christmas time (and then what was left in the feeder was mixed with the new non-medicated feed) They are only 17 weeks old and one of my EE's started laying already.

Do you think the medication is still in their systems, and if so, would it have transferred to the eggs and be bad for us to eat?

Thanks!

According to my vet, Amprolium will not hurt humans at all. There is no egg withdrawal on Amprolium (that is what is in chick starter).
