My ladies are approaching that age where they will start laying. Very exciting! I’ve been feeding Purina Starter Medicated crumbles. Should I switch to pellets? We have 3 Delewares. Thanks!

I would switch to Purina Flock Raiser and put out a couple of containers of oyster shell in high traffic zones in the run and or coop and be done with it.My ladies are approaching that age where they will start laying.

How old are they? Have they actually started to lay?
I would switch to flock raiser or all flock, hold off on + calcium or layer feed until they have started to lay eggs. The advantage of pellets IMHO is that there's much less waste.

True, unless the Op's Delawares are food snobs and just won't eat pellets then there is a ton of waste.
Not knocking pellets,I wish mine would eat them like you wouldn't believe but they act like iv'e poured them a bowl of razor blades and grizzly bears.
