Right now I have 2 flocks, the grown up gals in the main coop which get Layena pellets and the 14-15 week old pullets (2 marans and 2 guineas) in my chicken tractor that get Start and Grow.
I normally would have kept the young ones on the Start and Grown until 18 weeks, but tonight I am picking up 4 new hens (year and a half old). Here is my problem, I would like to quarantine the new birds in the tractor, and put the 14-15 year olds in with the grown ladies. However, I don't know if it is way too early to put them on the Layena or they are old enough to be okay?
