Wondering when to switch to layer feed and when and how to give oyster shells? Right now they're right around 20 weeks old I believe. I also have a rooster and a few that are only around 16 weeks, will they be ok if they were to eat it? Right now they are still on a grower/finisher feed.
 
Excessive calcium in layer pellets is hard on a rooster's kidneys. Try to feed your rooster separate from hens. I have oyster shell and granite grit free choice. I feed gamebird grower cut with wild bird seed to about 18% protein.
