I have 7 chickens that are going to be 16 weeks this Wednesday. I also have 5 that will be 13 weeks old and 2 that will be 12 weeks old on Wednesday. I have them all on a %16 Pullet Developer right now.
Depending on what I read I should put them on a %20 Layer mash, %18 Layer crumbles or %16 Complete Layer ration at 16-18 weeks.
I guess I have a few questions.
1: When should I change the feed 16, 17, or 18 weeks?
2: What should I be feeding them? (%20 Layer mash, %18 Layer crumbles, %16 Complete Layer ration or something not mentioned)
3: Should I separate them until the younger 2 are 16, 17, or 18 weeks.
4: Or should I wait for oldest to be 18 weeks and just move them all at the same time? (The others will be 15 and 14 weeks by then)
I hope you can make heads or tales of that.
Thanks for the help,
Jonathan
