The place I bought my first bag of starter was out of stock until tomorrow, the starter they sell is sealed in plastic bags (MannaPro). I went to the feed store up the road, and they don't sell MannaPro, they sell Southern States, which is in paper bags. I bought some, but when I got it home and opened it, weevils were crawling all through it...hundreds of them! I called the feed store back and they offered me a refund, but the owner said it is perfectly safe to feed it to my chicks with the weevils in it, as it is just extra protein for them.
That doesn't sound like a good idea, but before I run back to the store, does it matter? Is it okay to feed it to them like this? The chicks are between 10 and 20 days old.
