getting 25 cornish cross within a couple days!!!

[marcandmaria]

SOOO excited for my meat birds to come in! a few issues i have is trying to feed them organic food the protein % is lower than what I'm reading... and the feed instructions on some of the feed is odd....


I have read i should start our with 22%+ protein then come down to 20% after a few weeks....
the highest organic i can find is 20% and 18%

i understand its only a few % but should it matter? will they just grow a little bit slower? any help would be great

Right now I'm looking at the natures best organic feed, and also there is a organic farm 90 min away from me that sells 20 and 18% as well

thanks
A nervous soon to be dad of 25!!

I am by no means an expert, but i do think they would grow slower,

They will be fine....

Meat birds are incredible, they grow so fast it's hard to even comprehend. They will do just fine on 20%

If it we're me I would just feed them the 20% that should even out any minor loss in performance you may have. At this point we are splitting hairs. They will do great
