OK, I have 4 week old, 1 week and tomorrow new baby chicks. When they all go out to the coop permenantly, how do I keep their different foods separated. Like the 4 week olds will start laying before the new ones (I hope), and will need layer feed then and more calcium, will that hurt the newer chicks? Can I put them all on the layer feed at the same time (when they are older), or do i keep feeding them the starter until they start laying too?
Plus, I am looking for a good, but not expensive organic feed, any recommendations? My local feed store does not carry organic at all, so it looks like I may have to order it online. And how much would I need(when they are all on the same layer feed) for 5 pullets, who get to graze during the day?
Thanks in advance for the assistance. Have a clucky day!
