layer crumbles for 4 mo old silkie

[kerrysmommy]

can i start giving my 4 month old silkie pullet layer crumples it is showing no sign of a comb forming so does that mean its a pullet and i can feed it layer feed mixed with cracked corn??

At four months, it is not fully grown but very close. If you have other feed, I would wait a couple more weeks to move to layer feed.

Unless you have no other feed, there's no rush, really.

Take it easy on the corn ration too. Corn is fine, but is lower on protein than full formula grower feed.
