Earliest time to switch from starter/grower to layer feed?

Thanks for the info. I wish I could find where I read about starting them on layer early, but there are so many chicken resources other than this site I've read, and I certainly didn't bookmark them all. One of the warnings I read was the possibility for kidney damage, but I recall reading that by the time they are 3-4 months old, that really isn't an issue compared to starting a very young chick on layer. Does that sound right to you all?

I don't have any specific plans on doing this, BTW; I'm just getting as much information as I can. The starter/grower I've been using is fine, and yes, I've read all the guidelines from most of the major feed makers including brands that I haven't used (Purina for one), so this is exactly the kind of feedback I was looking for!

Thanks again,

Mark
