How long to leave chicks on medicated feed?

[theberlinfam]

This thread has been very helpful! I've got babies in the brooder and I do let them out in a small play area each day to scratch. I'll keep them on the medicated food for another month! They're about 3 weeks old now.

Have 54 more in the incubator!

I didn't want to use medicated but i decided to at first.I gave 15 chicks a 20lb bag of TSC medicated feed which lasted about 3 weeks.Then
switched them to
non-medicated.I also gave them turfs of the grass and soil from where they were going to be when old enough.
Just my experience.Not expert scientific facts.
