My little scovies are doing well so far, but I ran out of unmedicated chick starter. Every feed store and co-op around here has only medicated chick feed. Even the game bird feed is medicated! At one place, when I asked about unmedicated the man was really rude. He said "every one feeds the medicated stuff." When I told him that medicated could kill ducklings if they eat too much of it he said "Then I guess they just die."
So since the only thing I have that isn't medicated is scratch feed, I've been giving them that for the past couple of days. What else can I give them to support their growth that won't hurt them? If needs be I can make a run into one of the larger towns and maybe pick up some DUMOR at the TSC on monday.
