New to Meaties

[sonjab314]

I purchased some Cornish Cross meaties this year. At what point do I take them off of chick starter and put them on grow out feed?

I would leave them on chick starter until 8 weeks old. Then switch them to grower until 18 weeks.

i never switch they don't last long enough before its time to put them in the freezer.

I don't use chick starter for the Cornish x. I just keep them on a 22% feed from day 1 until slaughter. You could keep them on the starter until harvesting time.

I didn't use chick starter either. I started mine on Flockraiser (20% protein)
