My 6-7 week old chicks have been on a 20% starter/grower. My DW picked up some 15% finisher feed. I was thinking of picking up some 24% game bird feed and mixing it get to around 20%. My questions, does it really matter that much if one bag is at 15%? I have 31 chickens and a bag is currently lasting about 10-14 days. I want healthy strong birds, and if getting gamebird feed and mixing is a good idea i have no problems doing it. Thanks for the input. Christopher
Hi Christopher, that one bag with 15% protein won't hurt a bit...I'd just use it up and not worry, but do go back to the starter/grower. I always feed that until my chickens are appx 17 weeks old, then I switch to layer feed. Have a great day, Sharon
