Hello,
I started my quail chicks on super starter crumb which was around 27% protein. Now that they are exactly 1 month old it has conveniently run out. The store i bought it from does not have it in stock. I was looking to move to quail grower pellets but that was also not in stock. The only 2 things in stock are poultry chick crumb (19% protein + other stuff) or quail breeder pellets (19.5% protein + other stuff).
Which one should i start the quail on ? As far as i have researched, the breeder pellets probably contain more calcium so i should give the poultry chick crumb for the next 3-4 weeks which should be 'good enough' and then move over to the breeder pellets ?
Any advice is appreciated thanks !
