Flock raiser or chick starter?

[Namble]

I have some Silkies that are 10 weeks old and some others that are 7 weeks old. What should I be feeding them? Right now I still have them on chick starter. So do I keep them on chick starter until they start laying? I forgot how it goes because its been so long since I had some chicks!

My one page has Dumor and Purina charts on what to feed when. Here is a link:

and most feed bags have a chart on the back you can check and feed to the younger groups need.

At my feedstore they only carry Nutrena.

Sorry then I don't know

But if you find out from someone else or from the feed bag please let me know so I can add to the chart.

If you already have Purina Flock Raiser, they can eat that since there's no added calcium in it. Then when they start laying, just give them some oyster shell free choice and leave them on the Flock Raiser. Or, if you still have chick starter left, just leave them on that until they start laying or the chick starter is used up and then either put them on a laying feed (with the calcium) or the Flock Raiser with oyster shell offered free choice.
