Thanks!

but make sure your chick starter isn't medicated.. they should be on a flock-not-layer formula... I believe chick starter for a very short period is ok, in a pinch..but the medication is not good for them.

You are looking for 16% protein. To much protein will cause leg and wing deformities, because it makes them grow to fast. It should also be unmedicated.
