Oh sh** don't say that..it has always been my nightmare...I feed my chickens organic but have struggled with having to feed my chicks medicated to give them some defense against???? I don't really know what but people all say...medicated or they will get Mereks ect...
BUT...I have feed my chicks under the broody with organic grower and they were fine...and my chicks in the brooder with medicated and they had some problems with poopy butt and i had to check them daily and cut their fluff off ect....
but then I also gave the chicks with the momma the option of some medicated feed and now they have poopy butt and I have had to check them and cut the dried poop off their butts as well.
Drives me nuts...
I don't like it! So I have taken it all away...
I wish I could find organic feed where I am. I have asked at all the local feed stores and noone has any.
