About to buy my chick crumb but how much do i need?

Sorry for all the questions....i like to be prepared!

Thanks in advance!
 
The manufacturer of the feed i'm using provides estimates of how much you'll need. IIRC, My 15 BO's are said to require about 50 lbs until time to switch to grower. That suggests you'd need about 10 lbs, so you probably want to buy the smallest size package available, or find someone to splt with.

I'd start with a 5# bag...you will definitely need more, but you don't want it getting too old before getting a new, fresh bag!
 
I keep their feeder full. They grow so fast and the bigger they get the more they eat. my chicks are nearly 2 months old I am still on my 2nd 50# bag but I will be buying another 50# bag soon.
