Do I need to start Cornish Xs with medicated fed?

[ngamtnman]

Well I ordered my first batch of Cornish Xs from Meyer, they're not due to arrive until around September 8th so they will be ready to process when all my other regular breeds are ready to process. Any way, I was reading on Meyer's site and they recommend starting the Cornish Xs out on medicated 20% chick starter for the first three weeks - does anyone else do this or can I just use regular 20% starter?

We don't ever use medicated feed.

I don't use it especially not in my meat birds. Not really against it, just don't need it.

Ok, thanks! I was hoping to not have to use it.
